Abstract Trans-nasal endoscopic surgery (TNES) is a helpful diagnostic and therapeutic modality in otorhinolaryngology surgeries and requires controlled hypotension for better visualization of the surgical field. Recent literature shows evidence of intravenous Lignocaine infusion to produce the controlled hypotension. The study aims to assess and compare the effects of Lignocaine (LIG) and Dexmedetomidine (DEX) infusion with respect to surgical field quality. 101 Consenting adult patients undergoing elective TNES were double-blinded, randomly allocated in one of the two groups and received either DEX infusion of 0.5ug/kg/hr (n = 51) or LIG infusion of 1.5 mg/kg/h (n = 50) after a loading dose. Surgical field score (SVF) as the primary outcome and secondary outcomes such as variations in hemodynamic parameters, the requirement for rescue agents and total blood loss were recorded. Both the groups were comparable with respect to patient demographics, total duration of anesthesia and surgery. SVF scores were significantly better in the LIG group during the first 105 min of the surgery (p \ 0.05). In response to intubation, hemodynamic parameters were lower in LIG group. The requirement of other adjuvant drugs, total blood loss (166.40 ml vs. 251.17 ml) and extubation time were also significantly lower in the LIG group. The study concludes that intravenous Lignocaine gives a better surgical field in the first 105 min of surgery, comparable

Introduction The primary objective of anesthesia is balancing the patient’s hemodynamics with the best possible surgical outcome. In modern anesthesia, a multimodal approach to balanced anesthesia is targeted with combined general anesthetics and systemic drugs. Trans-nasal endoscopic surgery (TNES) is a helpful diagnostic and therapeutic modality in paranasal sinus diseases [1] TNES are associated with significant intraoperative bleeding, pain, epistaxis, and transient headaches [2].
