Alpha2-Adrenoceptor agonists have an immensely diverse utility in peri-operative and
critical care medicine. In particular, their application as premedicants, analgesics and
hypnotics/sedatives is becoming increasingly popular with delivery to a wide spectrum of
patients. The ability of these agents to provide renal, cardiac and neurocognitive protection
is only just being realized and requires further study.
