NCT04007341

Brief Summary

The postoperative inflammatory response is significant in lung resection surgery because of major operation and one-lung ventilation. Dexmedetomidine has been shown to reduce pro-inflammatory cytokine levels and improve clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of dexmedetomidine on inflammatory responses after lung resection surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Interleukin (IL)-6

    Blood samples were collected from the antecubital vein

    24 hours after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Saline group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in the saline group were infused with an identical volume of normal saline.

Dexmedetomidine group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in the dexmedetomidine group were infused with a loading dose of dexmedetomidine (1.0 mcg/kg over 10 min) and were thereafter infused at a rate of 0.5 mg/kg/h.

Drug: Dexmedetomidine

Interventions

The study drug for each group was administered from the time immediately after induction of anesthesia until the end of the surgery.

Dexmedetomidine group
