Introduction: In this study, we aim to investigate the effects of two different preanesthetic doses of dexmedetomidine on the hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation, intubation conditions and neuromuscular block. Methods: Seventy-five ASAI-II patients, aged 18-70 years, who required tracheal intubation for elective surgery were allocated for this study. Before induction, patients were randomly divided into three groups to receive either saline as placebo (20cc) (GroupC), dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg (Group D0.5) or dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg (Group D1) in a total volume of 20 cc in 10 min. Heart rate(HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were recorded according to the study's measurement time. Time to achieve 90% and 100% neuromuscular block, time to recovery from neuromuscular block 25% (T25), 50% (T50), 75% (T75) and recovery index values were noted. Results: The increases in HR after laryngoscopy and immediately intubation were lower in both groups D than Group C. Values of MAP during laryngoscopy were lower in both Groups D than Group C Times to achieve 90% and 100% neuromuscular block were found significantly lower in dexmedetomidine groups than Group C. Values of T75 and recovery index in Group D 0.5, T25, T50, T75 and recovery index in Group D1 were longer than Group C. Neuromuscular block properties were similar between dexmedetomidine groups. Discussion and Conclusion: We conclude that dexmedetomidine decreased hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation, especially heart rate dose-dependently, whereas it decreased time to achieve neuromuscular block and increased time to recovery from the neuromuscular block as independent from dose.
