Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Compare the effects of two different doses of dexmedetomidine infusion on oxygenation as a primary outcome and on lung mechanics, quality of recovery and perioperative analgesia as secondary outcomes in morbidly obese patients with restrictive lung disease undergoing abdominal surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Dexmedetomidine is a selective α2 receptor agonist and has sympatholytic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory and sedative properties. Dexmedetomidine decreased dead space and improved both lung compliance and oxygenation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.

The effects of dexmedetomidine on oxygenation and lung mechanics had been investigated in obstructive lung disease, but there are little information about its effect in morbidly obese patients with restrictive lung disease .
