This study aims to compare the efficacy of dexmedetomidine administered via intravenous infusion versus bolus injection for postoperative analgesia.
Comparative observational study conducted among 1000 participants aged 35-65 years scheduled for elective gynecological surgeries.
Participants were divided into two groups: Group D (intravenous dexmedetomidine) and Group C (control).
Hemodynamic variables, recovery time, rescue analgesia, pain scores, and adverse events were recorded.
Group D exhibited lower hemodynamic parameters throughout the surgery (P < 0.05).
Group D required fewer rescue analgesics compared to Group C (P = 0.001).
Group D had prolonged recovery time (P = 0.001) and lower pain scores than Group C (P = 0.001).
