Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the efficacy of intrathecal hyperbaric ropivacaine compared to bupivacaine in patients undergoing cesarean section with regard to onset and duration of sensory and motor blockade.Timepoint: Sensory and motor blockade will be assessed every 5min, 10min, 15min, 30min, 45min, until maximum block will be achieved followed by postoperative room for every 30min until the return of normal sensory and motor function. The time to maximum sensory or motor block and complete recovery will also be observed and recorded.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the efficacy of intrathecal hyperbaric ropivacaine compared to bupivacaine in patients undergoing caesarean section with regard to hemodynamic effects, post operative pain & adverse effects if any.Timepoint: Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) & heart rate (HR) will be recorded every 3 min, 6min, 9min, 12min, 15min, 20min, 25min, 30min, 45min, 60min & then post operatively hourly for two hours. Post operative pain is assessed every 30 min, 60min, 90min, 120min & then every 2 h till 24 h or once patient complaints of pain according to NRS scale.
