Summary

This study looked at whether giving a sedative called dexmedetomidine before placing a breathing tube can prevent sudden rises in blood pressure and heart rate in patients with controlled high blood pressure. 70 adults having planned surgery under general anesthesia took part. The goal was to see if the drug makes the procedure safer by reducing stress on the heart.
