Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Oxygenation

    assessed by P/F ratio

    2 hours

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Lung mechanics

    2 hours

  • arterial blood pressure

    2 hours

  • plateau airway pressure

    2 hours

  • heart rate

    2 hours

Study Arms (2)

Dexmedetomidine group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive either, Dexmedetomidine (Precedex, Hospira, Lake forest, IL, USA) in a dose of (1ug/Kg LBW) bolus followed by 0.5ug/Kg continuous infusion for one hour

Drug: Dexmedetomidine

Control group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients will receive normal saline

Drug: Normal saline

Interventions

Dexmedetomidine infusion was previously reported to improve oxygenation and lung dynamics in patients with obstructive lung diseases. In our study we are going to investigate its effect on oxygenation and lung dynamics in restrictive lung disease

Also known as: Precedex
Dexmedetomidine group
