Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Post op analgesia Timepoint: Visual analogue scale at 0,10,15,30 and 60 minutes and then at every 30 minutes in post anaesthesia care unit during first 2 hours and then hourly till the next 12 hours in the post operative ward.Whenever VAS score reaches more than 4, rescue analgesia will be given in the form of intramuscular tramadol 50mg. Time to the first dose of tramadol will be recorded.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Motor blockade Sensory blockade Timepoint: Motor block is assessed using Modified Bromage scale every 5 min until maximum motor block is achieved and then time of return of normal motor function will be noted.Sensory block will be determined using the pinprick method, dermatomal level will be assessed every 2 minutes from completion of injection until the assessed sensory level remained stable for four consecutive assessments. Testing will be conducted every 10 min thereafter until two-segment regression is noticed.
