Protocol summary

Study aim
General aim: to determine the preventive effect of two different doses of dexmedetomidine on the occurrence of cough and respiratory complications during tracheal tube removal compared to the control group
Design
A clinical trial with a control group, with parallel groups, three blind strains, randomized, phase 2 and 3 on 105 patients. Random allocation statistical software was used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
The present study is a three-blind randomized clinical trial that will be conducted at Ayatollah Kashani Medical Center. In this study, there are two intervention groups and one control group, and people are randomly assigned to these groups. The intervention method is described above. The study participants, the person who collects the data, and the data analyst are not aware of the study groups
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Entry criteria: age between 18-65 years, ASA 1,2, need general anesthesia with tracheal intubation Exclusion criteria: patients with heart failure, respiratory failure, renal failure, hepatic failure, known allergy to the studied drugs, heart block, uncontrolled blood pressure, smokers and addiction to any type of addictive substance
Intervention groups
Group 1: 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine bolus followed by 0.3 μg/kg infusion, ten minutes before tracheal tube removal. Group 2: 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine bolus followed by 0.5 μg/kg infusion, ten minutes before tracheal tube removal. Group 3 (control): 10 minutes before leaving the tracheal tube, normal saline is injected with an equal volume of groups one and two as a bolus, and then with an equal volume of the other two groups as an infusion.
Main outcome variables
The frequency of coughing and the intensity of coughing during extubation, which is recorded from the time of full awakening to 5 minutes after extubation.
