Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.To determine if prophylactic intramuscular glycopyrrolate administration reduces the incidence and severity of hypotension associated with spinal anaesthesia in elderly patients. 2. To determine the difference in proportion of cases who develop hypotension after spinal anaesthesia between two groups.Timepoint: 24 hrs

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To determine the difference in hemodynamic variables (Heart Rate, Systolic Blood Pressure, Diastolic Blood Pressure, Mean Arterial Pressure) from baseline to different time intervals post the subarachnoid block between two groups. 2. To determine the difference in total dose of rescue vasopressor used between study groups.Timepoint: 24hrs
