Does premedication with dexmedetomidine provide perioperative hemodynamic stability in hypertensive patients?

abstract：BACKGROUND:Volume replacement therapy with colloid is still worth studying in major pediatric surgery with potential risk of bleeding. This study assessed the effects of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 and 5% Human Albumin (HA) on coagulation tested by thromboelastography (TEG) during elective intracranial tumor s...
