Brief Summary
|
Subanaesthetic doses of Ketamine has been tried for procedural sedation in the past.1, 2 Dexmedetomidine is increasingly used as a sedative drug for procedural sedation in various surgeries in recent times.3.4 There are no studies in literature comparing ketamine and dexmedetomedine for allaying procedural discomfort. So we would like to compare the efficacy of dexmeditomedine and subanaesthetic dose of ketamine in allaying procedural discomfort during establishment of subarachnoid block Aims and objectives; To compare the efficacy of dexmeditomedine and subanaesthetic dose of ketamine in allaying procedural discomfort during establishment of subarachnoid block with regard to 1. Degree of sedation, 2. Ease of positioning, 3. Prick response 3. Time interval between study drug injection and response to verbal commands 4. Complications 5. Recall of procedure, 6. Patient satisfaction hypothesis: dexmeditomedine is better than subanaesthetic dose of ketamine in allaying procedural discomfort during establishment of subarachnoid block |
