Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare duration of motor and sensory blockade of intrathecal 0.5% isobaric levobupivacaine with 0.5% isobaric ropivacaineTimepoint: After giving spinal blood pressure and heart rate will be checked every one minute for 10 mins and every 5 mins for next 1 hour and then every 15 mins until the end of the surgery.Sensory and motor blockade will be assessed every 3 min for 15 min and every 10 min for 45 min,every 15 min for 90 min and finally 30 min thereafter until sensory block regress to S2 dermatome.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.onset of action 2.time to maximum sensory and motor blockade 3.haemodynamic parameters between intrathecal 0.5% isobaric levo bupivacaine and 0.5% isobaric ropivacaineTimepoint: After giving spinal blood pressure and heart rate will be checked every one minute for 10 mins and every 5 mins for next 1 hour and then every 15 mins until the end of the surgery.Sensory and motor blockade will be assessed every 3 min for 15 min and every 10 min for 45 min,every 15 min for 90 min and finally 30 min thereafter until sensory block regress to S2 dermatome.—
