Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparing the effect of intranasal remifentanil with intranasal dexmedetomidine on changes in heart rate and blood pressure after laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation.
Design
In this study, a phase 3 double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial with a control group of 186 laryngoscopy candidate patients in three equidistant groups divided into 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine, 4 μg/kg remifentanil and the same volume of normal saline in 30 Minutes before, intranasal laryngoscopy was injected and heart rate and blood pressure changes were compared in three groups.
Settings and conduct
This study was conducted in the first half of 1403 in Al-Zahra Hospital, Isfahan. The patients who collect the data are not aware of the type of medicine received.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Patients aged 18 to 65 years with physical condition 1 and 2 are candidates for general anesthesia with tracheal intubation, without airway malformation and without alergy to studied drugs, intubation in the first attempt and in less than 15 seconds and consent to participate in the project.
Intervention groups
30 minutes before the laryngoscopy, the first group received 1 μg/kg of intranasal dexmedetomidine, the second group received 4 μg/kg of intranasal remifentanil, and the third group received the same volume of normal saline intranasally.
Main outcome variables
Blood pressure, heart rate, percentage of blood oxygen saturation, tachycardia, bradycardia, hypertansion, hypotansion

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Patients are distributed in three groups by simple random method. 186 prepared white cards are written on 62 cards letter A, on 62 cards letter B and on 62 cards letter C and put into a container. When the patient enters the operating room, the patient is asked to take a card from the container. According to the letter written on the card, the patient is placed in one of three groups: remifentanil, dexmedetomidine, and control.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The drugs used by the project manager are prepared in similar and coded syringes and are injected to the patients before laryngoscopy. The patients and the person collecting the information and the results of the intervention will be unaware of the type of drug injected.
