Induced Hypotension in Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A Comparative Study of Dexmedetomidine and Esmolol.

Introduction Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is one of the common surgical procedures requiring hypotensive anesthesia; many agents have been tried to reduce the amount of blood loss. This study aims at comparing the efficacy of two agents for providing deliberate hypotension. Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of esmolol and of dexmedetomidine and compare which one of the two is a better agent to produce induced hypotension during FESS.
