Study aim
-
The effects of dexmedetomidine on post-operative blood glucose level in non diabetic patients undergoing cardiac surgery
-
Design
-
A clinical trial with the control group, with parallel groups, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 on 72 non-diabetic patients undergoing elective coronary artery surgery. Random sequence generation site www.sealedenvelope.com is used for randomization.

Settings and conduct
-
72 patients in Shahid Faghihi and Abu Ali Sina hospitals are divided into two groups (each group includes 36 people), group D (dexmedetomidine) and group C (control). After induction of anesthesia, infusion of dexmedetomidine at a dose of 0.5 µ g / kg/hr in group D and in the control group (C) normal saline 0.9% with the same volume will be started and continued until the end of surgery. And we measure their blood glucose levels before, during, and after the operation.
