Effectiveness of different doses of dexmedetomidine on intraoperative haemodynamic profiles and postoperative pain in patients undergoing abdominal surgery at Dilla University Referral Hospital, Ethiopia, 2024: a double-blind randomized controlled trial.

Background And Objective: Abdominal surgery stands as one of the most frequently conducted procedures across surgical specialties, accounting for up to half of surgery-related expenses. Hemodynamic instability emerges as a significant concern during anaesthesia and surgery, provoked by the stress of intubation, surgical incision, and anaesthetic agents. Following abdominal surgery, pain is an inevitable consequence, typically managed with opioid-based analgesia.
