About

This randomized double-blind study aimed to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine and ketamine on hemodynamic parameters, recovery criteria, and opioid consumption and advers effects in septorhinoplasty operations. Totally 63 patients were included.

The groups were compared in terms of hemodynamic values, recovery times, postoperative agitation, sedation, activity, modified Aldrete and pain scores, side-effects and additional analgesia requirements at postoperative 24h.

Full description

A total of 63 patients 18-55 years undergoing septorhinoplasty, who were graded as American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status were randomly allocated into three groups, receiving dexmedetomidine (n=21, Group D), ketamine (n=21, Group K) and saline solution (n=21, Group S). Anesthesia was induced with propofol, cisatracurium and fentanyl. Maintenance anesthesia was done with 2-2.5% sevoflurane mixture, 50-60% oxygen and N2O. The groups were compared in terms of hemodynamic values, recovery times, postoperative agitation, sedation, activity, modified Aldrete and pain scores, side-effects and additional analgesia requirements at postoperative 24h.
