Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  dexmedetomidine hydrochloride  The study will be conducted on 80 patients with difficult airway (LEMON 2),randomly allocated in 2 groups of 40 each. Group D will be nebulized with 2mcg/kg of Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride ( to a total volume of 4 ml using 0.9% normal saline) and Group LD will be nebulized with 2mcg/kg of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride+2ml of 4% lignocaine hydrochloride ( to a total volume of 4 ml using 0.9% normal saline) . After checking preanesthetic report, consent, identity, and fasting, the patients will be explained about the awake Fiberoptic guided intubation during the preoperative assessment. Inside the operating room after securing an intravenous (i.v ) line ,injection ondansetron 4mg i.v and injection glycopyrrolate 0.2mg i.v. will be given. Nasal xylometazoline drops (2 in each nostril,two times at a gap of 10 min)will be instilled. Inside the operating room, electrocardiography(ECG), non invasive blood pressure (NIBP),pulse oximetry (SPO2)and end tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2)will be applied for monitoring. An OMRON Ultrasonic NE-U17 nebulizer with the oxygen flow rate of 6-8 L/min will be used to deliver the drugs in naso-oro-pharynx in both the Groups. In the sitting position patients will be encouraged to inhale deeply through their nose and mouth to facilitate entrainment of nebulized drug into their airway over 10 min.Both groups will receive superior laryngeal nerve blocks with 2ml of 2% lignocaine on each side and transtracheal recurrent laryngeal nerve block with 2% loxicard(lignocaine hydrochloride without preservative) . Four puffs of 10% lignocaine hydrochloride to oro-pharynx space will be given. Adequate effect of local anesthesia will be confirmed by heaviness in the oral cavity and by hoarseness of voice. Fiber optic intubation will then be performed. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Randomization is done by computer-generated random number tables. Chi-square test and unpaired t-test will be used for statistical analysis .

Brief Summary   A COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF EFFICACY OF NEBULIZATION WITH DEXMEDETOMIDINE AND NEBULIZATION WITH 4% LIGNOCAINE PLUS DEXMEDETOMIDINE FOR AWAKE FIBEROPTIC INTUBATION IN DIFFICULT AIRWAY SCENARIO 
Different topical and regional techniques have been developed to subdue reflexes and facilitate awake fiberoptic intubation .It is essential to sufficiently anesthetize the upper airway and suppress the gag, swallow ,and cough reflexes prior to awake fiberoptic intubation and thus ensure patient comfort
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
A comparative double blinded randomised study will be performed-
1) To evaluate the effect of preoperative nebulisation with dexmedetomidine and preoperative nebulisation with dexmedetomidine plus lignocaine for awake fiberoptic intubation on-
a) sedation/alertness
b) vocal cord /limb movement
c) coughing
