Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the duration of motor blockade after spinal anaesthesia with Hyperbaric Levobupivacaine Hyperbaric ropivacaine and Hyperbaric Bupivacaine for Endoscopic Urological surgeriesTimepoint: 2 hours after onset of motor block defined as modified bromage scale of 3 and 15 minutes thereafter till modified bromage scale 0

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Duration of analgesiaTimepoint: Time of first requirement of rescue analgesic if needed after injection of study drug.;Duration of sensory blockadeTimepoint: Time interval between onset of sensory block to regression of block to L1 dermatome;Incidence of hypotension & bradycardiaTimepoint: Baseline vitals & that following injection of the drug intrathecally will be assessed every 3 minutes for the first 15 minutes and 5 minutes thereafter.;Peak level of blockTimepoint: Maximum level(peak) of sensory block will be noted (Sensory level after 20 minutes post injection of study drug into subarachnoid space);Time of onset of motor blockadeTimepoint: Defined as time taken to reach Modified Bromage score of 3 after deposition of study drug. Modified Bromage Scale 0:No motor block 1:Inability to raise extended leg; able to move knees & feet 2:Inability to raise extended leg and move knee; able to move feet 3:Complete block of motor limb ;Time of onset of sensory blockadeTimepoint: Time from injection of study drug to obtaining T10 dermatomal level. The level of sensory block will be assessed with a sterile pin prick every 2 minutes till level of T10 reached
