Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia in patients receiving intramuscular glycopyrrolate versus those receiving intramuscular normal saline.Timepoint: From the time of induction of spinal anaesthesia up to 60 mins intraoperatively.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To compare haemodynamic parameters (HR, SBP, DBP, MAP & SpO2) intra-operatively in both groups.Timepoint: Baseline, at induction of spinal anaesthesia and then at an interval of 2 minutes up to 20 minutes and then every 5 minutes up to 60 minutes after the block.;To determine the need for vasopressor support in both groups.Timepoint: From the time of induction of spinal anaesthesia up to 60 minutes intraoperatively.;To assess intraoperative and postoperative side effects like nausea, vomiting and presence of dry mouth in both groups.Timepoint: Intraoperatively and up to 6 hours postoperatively.
