Summary

Since the frequency of emergence agitation (EA) is relatively high in children while undergoing nasal surgery, and there is not much data available in Pakistan regarding EA in adults undergoing functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). Hence there is a need to conduct this study in the local population to see the effect of dexmedetomidine and midazolam on EA. Therefore, the current study was initiated, aiming to compare the effect of dexmedetomidine and midazolam on EA in patients undergoing FESS.
