Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To conclude that in the present study using 0.5% bupivacaine with fentanyl and 0.75% ropivacaine with fentanyl epidurally, ropivacaine produced an earlier onset but similar duration of sensory block. The onset, quality and duration of motor block were comparable in both the groups.Timepoint: During hysterectomy operation for two hours | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| In hemodynamics, heart rate was comparable in both groups but blood pressures (SBP, MAP, DBP) was decrease significantly in bupivacaine group after 20min of administration of the epidural study drug.Timepoint: Post operative assessment for 24hours | — |
