Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • This study aims to assess the efficacy of nebulized dexmedetomidine vs nebulized ketamine to achieve good postoperative pain management in patients undergoing endoscopic nasal surgeries.

    post operative pain management by VAS

    24 hours after operation

Study Arms (3)

group D : will receive dexmedetomidine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will receive nebulized dexmedetomidine 50 μg (0.5 ml +normal saline 0.9% up to 3 ml) 15 minutes prior to the onset of surgery.

Drug: Dexmedetomidine

group K : will receive ketamine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

patients will receive nebulized ketamine 50 mg (1 ml + normal saline 0.9%up to 3 ml) 15 minutes prior to the onset of surgery.

Drug: Ketamine

group C: will receive .9% saline

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients will receive nebulized normal saline 0.9% (3 ml) 15 minutes prior to the onset of surgery.

Drug: 0.9%sodium chloride

Interventions

patients in this group will receive nebulized Dexmedetomidine before onset of surgery

group D : will receive dexmedetomidine

patients in this group will receive nebulized ketamine before onset of surgery

group K : will receive ketamine

patients in this group will receive nebulized 0.9% normal saline before onset of surgery

group C: will receive .9% saline
