Background Hemodynamic derangement due to pneumoperitoneum and postoperative pain
after laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be detrimental; this study investigated whether …

Background: Clonidine diminishes stress response by reducing circulating catecholamines
and hence increases perioperative circulatory stability in patients undergoing laparoscopic …

Background: Both magnesium and clonidine are known to inhibit catecholamine and
vasopressin release and attenuate hemodynamic response to pneumoperitoneum. This …

Clonidine has anti-hypertensive properties and augments the effects of anaesthesia, hence
we considered it to be an ideal agent to contain the stress response to pneumoperitoneum …

Background: Clonidine has emerged as an attractive premedication desirable in
laparoscopic surgery wherein significant hemodynamic stress response is seen. The …

Background: Pneumoperitoneum created during laparoscopy results in patho-physiologic
changes, especially in the cardiovascular system. Clonidine diminishes stress response by …

Pneumoperitoneum required for laparoscopy results in pathophysiologic changes,
especially in the cardiovascular system. Clonidine, an alpha 2 agonist has been shown to …

Background: Surgical laparoscopy is associated with significant pathophysiological changes
due to pneumoperitoneum using carbon dioxide and haemodynamic alterations that need to …

Background: In laparoscopic surgery, Carbondioxide (CO 2) is routinely used to create
pneumoperitoneum. Elevated intra-abdominal pressure, due to pneumoperitoneum, and …

Background: Laparoscopic surgeries, including cholecystectomy are being performed on a
large scale owing to the improved tissue healing and minimal hospital stay. However the …
