Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
The primary aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of Clonidine and Esmolol in attenuation of hemodynamic stress response due to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation.  Rate Pressure Product (RPP) will be recorded just after intubation 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
The secondary aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of Clonidine & Esmolol in attenuation of hemodynamic stress response during pneumoperitoneum.  Rate Pressure Product (RPP) will be recorded 5 minutes after pneumoperitoneum

Brief Summary   Laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation violate the patient’s protective airway reflexes and invariably cause hemodynamic changes associated with increased heart rate, increased blood pressure and occasional disturbance in cardiac rhythm. Effective attenuation of the sympathoadrenal stress response is an important goal in anesthesiology. Clonidine is an alpha 2 receptor agonist, which acts by decreasing central sympathetic outflow, increasing the parasympathetic tone and by decreasing circulating noradrenaline concentration. Esmolol is a short-acting cardioselective beta blocker, which reduces heart rate, systolic blood pressure, ejection fraction and cardiac index but it maintains coronary perfusion pressure. In this study an attempt will be made to observe, assess and compare the efficacy of Clonidine and Esmolol, in attenuating the haemodynamic response following laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation
