Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Intraoperative hemodynamic stability ( maximum blood pressure during surgery (systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean blood pressure (MBP))

    during operation

  • Intraoperative hemodynamic stability (duration of SBP increase by 30% or more from baseline (in minutes)

    during operation

  • Intraoperative hemodynamic stability (duration of SBP exceeding 200 mmHg)

    during operation

  • Intraoperative hemodynamic stability (maximum HR during surgery)

    during operation

  • Intraoperative hemodynamic stability (duration of HR exceeding 110 beats per minute during surgery)

    during operation

  • Intraoperative hemodynamic stability (comparison of the quantity of vasoactive drugs (nitroprusside, esmolol, norepinephrine) used during surgery)

    during operation

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • levels of catecholamines

    immediately after anesthesia induction

  • levels of catecholamines

    immediately after removal of the pheochromocytoma

  • levels of catecholamines

    immediately after the completion of surgery

Study Arms (2)

dexmedetomidine group

EXPERIMENTAL

In the dexmedetomidine group, dexmedetomidine is administered at a rate of 0.5 μg/kg/h immediately after anesthesia induction and continued until the completion of the surgery.

Drug: dexmedetomidine

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In the control group, a 0.9% normal saline infusion is initiated at the same rate immediately after anesthesia induction and continued until the end of the operation.

Drug: 0.9% normal saline

Interventions

In the dexmedetomidine group, dexmedetomidine is administered at a rate of 0.5 μg/kg/h immediately after anesthesia induction and continued until the completion of the surgery. The research nurse, who did not participate in the study other than the management and preparation of the study medication, prepared 50mL of 0.9% normal saline for the control group and a mixture of dexmedetomidine 2 mL and 0.9% normal saline 48 mL (at a concentration of 4 μg/mL) for the dexmedetomidine group.
