Summary

Dexmedetomidine is a selective α2 adrenergic agonist that can be considered analgesics, anxiolytic,and anti-stress effect .

Patients scheduled to undergo video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) will be enrolled. Patients will be recruited before the date of their surgery and will complete the Quality of Recovery-40 (QoR-40) questionnaire before their surgery and at 24 and 48 hours post op. They will also complete clinically significant pains score and oxygenation from the postanesthetic recovery unit (PACU).

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Dexmedetomidine

Formula for administrated were randomized by computer-generated randomization. The patients and anesthesiologist, who administered and conducted all this trial, were blinded to the medication allocation. An anesthesiologist, who responsible for preparation of medication was the only person, recognized of the randomization code during trial. After one-lung ventilation, dexmedetomidine group would start the loading of dexmedetomidine (1μg/kg) during 20 minutes.

DRUG

Normal saline

Saline placebo infusion will be adjusted the same fashion as the active comparator drug.
