Study aim
-
Determining and comparing the effect of different doses of labetalol on bleeding volume during and after dacryocystorhinostomy surgery
-
Design
-
A randomized, triple-blinding clinical trial, with the parallel groups, Phase 3 on 84 patients
-
Settings and conduct
-
In this randomized triple-blind clinical trial, 84 eligible patients referred to Feiz Hospital in Isfahan will be included in the study and randomly divided into three groups. Patients in the first group labetalol at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg, and in the second group labetalol at a dose of 0.4 mg/kg, and in the control group placebo will be injected. The intervention will be performed in such a way that the patient, the researcher, and the statistical analyst will have no knowledge of the type of intervention and the triple-blind conditions will be established. Then the bleeding volume and hemodynamic parameters of the patients will be evaluated and compared between the three groups.
