The primary aim of this study was to assess the association between dexmedetomidine use and the incidence of hypertension following repair of CoA in pediatric patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>METHODS<\/jats:title>This was a single-center, retrospective cohort study in patients younger than 19 years who underwent surgical repair of CoA between January 1, 2016, and September 30, 2021. Patients were divided into 2 groups: dexmedetomidine initiation within the first 3 hours after surgery or no dexmedetomidine. The primary outcome was incidence of hypertension within the first 4 to 24 hours after repair. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>RESULTS<\/jats:title>A total of 80 patients were included, 25 (31.25%) received dexmedetomidine. Median age at the time of procedure was 26 days (IQR, 13\u2013241) in the dexmedetomidine group and 14 days (IQR, 8\u201353) in the no dexmedetomidine group (p = 0.014). The primary outcome of hypertension was met in 7 patients (28%) in the dexmedetomidine group and 12 patients (21.8%) in the no dexmedetomidine group, p = 0.547. The only variable found to be associated with the incidence of hypertension was age greater than 30 days at the time of procedure. More patients who received dexmedetomidine experienced bradycardia. There was no difference in the incidence of hypotension.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>There was no association between the use of dexmedetomidine and the incidence of
