MeasureTime frame
1.The onset of sensory and motor block 2.Duration of sensory/ motor blockade Timepoint: Time interval between administration of study drug to loss of pin prick sensation in all 4 nerve territories. Time interval between of administration of study drug to a motor score of 2 or lower according to modified Bromage scale in all 4 nerve territories.Time interval between loss of pin prick sensation to reappearance of sensation in all 4 nerve territories. Time interval between attainment of â?¤Grade 2 motor block to complete recovery of motor power in all 4 nerve territories.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
