Background: Tracheal extubation causes autonomic nervous system disturbances which causes tachycardia, hypertension which are harmful in susceptible patients.so we conducted a study between iv Dexmedetomidine and iv Labetalol to assess their effectiveness in decreasing haemodynamic disturbances during extubation.Materials and Methods:we included 100 participants of age of 18-55 yrs with ASA grading I & II and divided them into 2 groups. Group D was given injection Dexmedetomidine 0.6mcg/kg iv and Group L was given injection Labetalol 0.25mg/kg body weight. We recorded Heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure at baseline, 2,5,8 minutes post drug injection, at extubation and 1,3,5,8,10 and 15 minutes after extubation.Results: Group D had better decreased heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure at the time of extubation, and also 15 minutes post extubation in comparison to Group L.Conclusion: Injection Dexmedetomidine 0.6µg/kg has showed a better attenuating effect on sympathoadrenal system during extubation than injection Labetalol 0.25mg/kgKeywords: Dexmedetomidine, labetalol, extubation,hemodynamics.
