Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the blood glucose levels in children undergoing infraumbilical surgeries under general anaesthesia with and without caudal analgesiaTimepoint: Baseline 30 minutes after start of surgery 60 minutes after start of surgery 30 minutes after end of surgery—

Secondary
