Ischemia and reperfusion injury due to tourniquet application during arthroscopy is a well known problem. This study aimed to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine and ketamine on hemodynamic and respiratory variables and on total anti-oxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) as markers of ischemia-reperfusion injury.
