The aim of this prospective randomized controlled double-blinded study is to compare the efficacy of dexmedetomidine, MgSO4 and lidocaine for cough suppression during general anesthetic emergence as regard number and severity.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Cough suppression as regard number and severity. — at 0 and 10,20,30,40 minutes after endotracheal extubation.
