Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   Hemodynamic stress response or the Pressor response to laryngoscopy  and intubation is very detrimental in cancer patients as they are weak due to the malignancy itself and due to concurrent treatment like Radiotherapy and chemotherapeutic drugs many of which have major side effects

There is always a need for an agent to overcome this response without any adverse effects

Dexmedetomidine is an alpha 2 adrenoceptor agonist which has the capability to totally blunt the hemodynamic stress response during laryngoscopy and intubation. But, Higher loading doses have known to cause side effects like Bradycardia and Hypotension which maybe counter productive in cancer patients as it leads to other complications that may alter intraoperative management and thereby postoperative recovery.. Hence if lower doses of dexmedetomidine can blunt this hemodynamic response without the side effects of bradycardia and hypotension, it would be of great help in the intraoperative management and early post op recovery of the cancer patient

Lignocaine is a local anesthetic which has been known to reduce the hemodynamic stress response to laryngoscopy and intubation but not blunt it completely. We want to give an active drug instead of a placebo as it may be of some benefit to the already ailing cancer patients.
