DLT insertion triggers significant sympathetic activation, potentially causing cardiovascular complications and cerebrovascular events.

Group A received 1 mcg\/kg Intranasal Dexmedetomidine, and Group B received Intranasal Normal saline 45 minutes prior to induction of anaesthesia using a mucosal atomizer device. Hemodynamic parameters, including systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR), were recorded at different time points up to 30 minutes after intubation.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Patients in the dexmedetomidine group had a lower heart rate before intubation (84.92 \u00b1 0.0349) than those in the placebo group (96.48 \u00b1 0.0349). A statistically significant reduction in heart rate was observed in Group A at intubation (T0) and at subsequent time points (T1, T2, T3, T20, T25, and T30).
