Brief Summary  

The study is  a randomized, double-blinded study .

This  study is designed to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of nebulized  dexmedetomidine, nebulized  ketamine, and nebulized  fentanyl as a premedication prior to general anaesthesia (GA) in paediatric patients. All patients who are allergic to the drugs used in this study ,Congenital heart disease,developmental delay and parental refusal are excluded from the study.Study will be done in 3-8 years of age group.

Patients will be randomly categorized into 3 equal groups (30 each) using a random numbers table with group allocation concealed in sealed opaque envelopes. Group K patients will be premedicated with nebulized ketamine solution (2 mg/kg), group D patients will be premedicated with nebulized dexmedetomidine solution (2 μg/kg), and group F will be premedicated with nebulized fentanyl(2mcg/kg).The observers and attending anaesthesiologists will be blinded to the drug being administered. A researcher who will not participate in the evaluation will administer the drugs to all the children in nebuliser.

OUTCOMES:

 1) The primary end point is the degree of sedation when the child was first seen in the OR 30 minutes after sedation, based on the Ramsay Sedation Scale..

 2) The secondary end points are parental separation, perioperative HR and BP, hemodynamic changes, sedation at emergence,post operative Face ,Legs ,Activity, Cry ,Consolability (FLACC) pain scale, the incidence of Emergence Agitation (EA),adverse effects.
