Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary objective of the study is to compare the feasibility under segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia in lower lumbar spine surgeries.Timepoint: T0 Preop T1 At the time of giving spinal T2 At the time of effect of spinal T3 At the time of Incision T4 At the time of shifting the patient out T5 24 Hours after OT

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary objectives are to assess intaroperative lower leg movements, measure the incidence of adverse effects (e.g., hypotension, bradycardia), and to evaluate patient satisfaction and recovery outcomes.Timepoint: T1 : Intraop Ta : Time to first analgesic request T24 : 24 Hrs Post Op
