Evaluation of Clonidine and Lignocaine for Attenuation of Haemodynamic Response to Laryngoscopy and Intubation: A Randomised Controlled Trial [PDF]
Introduction: Laryngoscopy and intubation leads to stimulation of the laryngopharyngeal and tracheal structures which leads to reflex sympathetic response and sudden rise of Blood Pressure (BP) and Heart Rate (HR).
