Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the clinical efficacy of hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% and hyperbaric levobupivacaine 0.5% in spinal anaesthesia based on onset of motor blockTimepoint: every 2 mins for first 20mins followed by every 10mins till 60mins then every 30mins till 180mins

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Time taken for complete motor blockade , onset of sensory blockade, duration of sensory and motor blockade and hemodynamic parametersTimepoint: every 2 mins for first 20mins followed by every 10mins till 60mins then every 30mins till 180mins
