Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the onset, peak, duration and regression of sensory and motor blockage in both groups. To compare the onset, peak, duration and regression of motor blockage in both groups. To compare period of postoperative analgesia in both groups. Timepoint: To measure vitals, and semsory and motor block effects at specific time interval. Time 0, after immediately giving spinal anaesthesia, and then at the time point of 1,2,3,5,10,15,30,60,90,120 mins and for post operative analgesia and effect regression 4 hours post operatively.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
to compare heamodynemic status of pt, and any side effects.Timepoint: Time 0(immediately after block) and then at 1,2,3,5,10,15,30,60,90,120 mins.
