Brief Summary  

This randomized, double-blind, control study will be conducted on 45 patients after the institutional ethical committee approves.

The study will be carried out at our institute for over 12 months. Randomization will be done using a computer-generated random number table to get an equal number of patients in each group. Both patients and the anaesthesiologist assigned for data collection will be kept blind throughout the study. Different anaesthesiologists will be assigned to study and control drugs. All patients will be randomly allocated into 3 groups of 15 each.

· Group DX: Injection Dexmedetomidine (0.5 mcg/kg) diluted with 0.9% normal saline to make a volume of 5 ml will be instilled intratracheally into the endotracheal tube 15-20 min before the expected extubation.

· Group LG:  2 % lignocaine 1.5 mg/kg diluted with 0.9% normal saline to make a volume of 5 ml will be instilled intratracheally into the endotracheal tube 15-20 min before the expected extubation

· Group CN:  5 ml of 0.9% normal saline will be instilled intratracheally into the endotracheal tube 15-20 min before the expected extubation.

Emergence cough response, Hemodynamic parameters and Vas score will be assessed.
