Randomized Controlled TrialEvaluation of outcomes in patients given dexmedetomidine in functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
We aimed to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride (DEX) on hemodynamic parameters and on surgeon and patient satisfaction during functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). ⋯ We observed that the intraoperative bleeding, hemodynamic stability, and VAS scores were better and the side effects were less frequent in the DEX group.
