Summary

This randomized trial compares dexmedetomidine and labetalol in controlling airway and hemodynamic stress during extubation in hypertensive patients undergoing craniotomy. Outcomes include extubation quality, vital signs, sedation, and adverse effects.

Conditions

  • Airway Stress Response

Interventions

DRUG

Dexmedetomidine

Participants in this arm will receive dexmedetomidine at a dose of 0.5 mcg/kg, diluted with normal saline to a total volume of 50 mL. The solution will be administered intravenously via a syringe pump at an infusion rate of 300 mL/hour, completing over 10 minutes immediately prior to extubation.

DRUG

Labetalol

Participants in this arm will receive labetalol at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg, diluted with normal saline to a total volume of 50 mL. The solution will be administered intravenously via a syringe pump at an infusion rate of 300 mL/hour, completing over 10 minutes immediately prior to extubation.
