Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Intranasal dexmedetomidine as premedication   Pediatric patients posted for cardiac surgical or interventional procedure for congenital heart disease will be given intranasal dexmedetomidine through the nasal atomizer in supine position in the presence of the parents in the preoperative preparation room 30 minutes before taking in the operating room. Sedation score will be measured at baseline,5,10,15,20,25,30 minutes after administration of the drug. 
Comparator Agent  Intranasal ketamine as premedication  Pediatric patients posted for cardiac surgical or interventional procedure for congenital heart disease will be given intranasal ketamine through the nasal atomizer in supine position in the presence of the parents in the preoperative preparation room 30 minutes before taking in the operating room. Sedation score will be measured at baseline,5,10,15,20,25,30 minutes after administration of the drug.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To compare the efficacy of premedication with intranasal dexmedetomidine and intranasal ketamine with respect to degree of sedation measured as sedation score in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgical or intereventional procedure.  The degree of sedation measured as sedation score at baseline,5,10,15,20,25,30 minutes after administration of the drug. 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1. To compare the efficacy of premedication with intranasal dexmedetomidine and intranasal ketamine with respect to:
A. Parental separation score
B. Intravenous cannula acceptance score
C. Face mask acceptance score
2. To compare the effect of premedication with intranasal dexmedetomidine and intranasal ketamine on hemodynamic variables, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation.
 
1. The following parameters will be measured at baseline,5,10,15,20,25,30 minutes after administration of the drug :
A. Parental separation score
B. Intravenous cannula acceptance score
C. Face mask acceptance score
2. Hemodynamic variables, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation measured at baseline,5,10,15,20,25,30 minutes after administration of the drug

Response - NO
Brief Summary   This study is a prospective, interventional, comparative, randomized study to compare intranasal dexmedetomidine and intranasal ketamine as premedication  in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease undergoing cardiac surgical or interventional procedure under general anaesthesia with the hypothesis that intranasal dexmedetomidine is a better premedicant than intranasal ketamine in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease undergoing cardiac surgical or interventional procedure. Primarily, degree of sedation measured as sedation score will be recorded. Secondarily, parental separation score, intravenous cannula acceptance score, face mask acceptance score, hemodynamic variables, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation will be recorded.
