Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Continous spinal anaesthesia  Subarachnoid space will be accessed through 18 G Tuohys epidural needle at L4-L5 interspace after getting free flow of CSF 20 G epidural catheter will be inserted and advanced 2cm into subarachnoid space Then needle will be removed carefully and catheter will be fixed and thereafter patient will be allow to lie supine After confirmation of aspiration of CSF through the catheter 1 ml(5mg) of 0.5 percent bupivacaine (heavy) will be injected and flush with 0.5 ml normal saline (dead space of the catheter) After 10 min if the sensory block level will not reach up to T4 level then 2nd aliquot of 0.3 ml 0.5 percent bupivacaine will be injected & flushed with 0.5 ml NS Subsequently same repeated doses of Bupivacaine will be administered at 10min to achieve block up to T4 level If block upto T4 level will not achieve after 3 doses then it will be considered as failure At the end of surgery fentanyl 25mcg will be injected through catheter and then the catheter will be removed effect will be seen till 12hrs 
Comparator Agent  Single shot spinal anaesthesia  subarachnoid space will be accessed through 25 G Quinkes spinal needle at L4-L5 interspace After confirmation of aspiration of CSF through the catheter single dose of2 ml (10mg) 0.5% Bupivacaine heavy will be injected into the subarachnoid space effect will be seen till 12hrs

Brief Summary   The thesis title Efficacy of continuous spinal anaesthesia versus single shot spinal anaesthesia for elective lower segment cesarean section in terms of incidence and severity of hypotension. A interventional study will be conducted in the department of anaesthesiology and pain medicine, Pt. J.N.M. Medical College and DR. B.R.A.M. Hospital Raipur (C.G.) after approval from institutional scientific and ethics committee. 

A total of 100 (50 patients in each group) patients under age group of 20-45 years female of ASA grade II and III and undergoing elective lower segment cesearian section with a height of 140-170cm and weight of 40-60kg will be included in this study.
All the enrolled parturients will be randomly placed into two groups to receive either continuous spinal anaesthesia (Group A) or single shot spinal anaesthesia (Group B) with the help of sealed envelope.

In CSA Group Group A, subarachnoid space will be accessed through 18 Gauge Tuoh’s epidural needle at L4-L5 interspace after getting free flow of cerebrospinal fluid, 20 gauge epidural catheter will be inserted and advanced 2cm into the subarachnoid space. Epidural needle will be removed carefully and epidural catheter will be fixed and thereafter patient will be allowed to lie supine.
After confirmation of cerebrospinal fluid through the catheter, 1 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy will be injected into the subarachnoid space and flush with 0.5 ml normal saline. After 10 minutes if the sensory block level will not reach upto T4 dermatome level then 2^nd aliquot of 0.3ml of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy will be injected and flushed with 0.5 ml normal saline.
If block level not reach upto T4 dermatome level in 3 doses then it will be considered as failure.
At the end of surgery fentanyl 25mcg will be injected with a flush of 0.5ml normal saline. After completion of surgery epidural catheter will be removed.


In SSSA Group Group B subarachnoid space will be accessed through 25 gauge Quinke’s spinal needle at L4-L5 interspace. After confirmation of aspiration of cerebrospinal fluid through the needle in the syringe a 2ml of single shot 0.5% bupivacaine heavy will be injected into the subarachnoid space and needle will be removed and patient allowed to lie in supine position and check the desired T5- T6 dermatome level to proceed the surgery.

After the injection in both the groups Heart Rate, Systolic Blood Pressure, Dystolic Blood Pressure, Mean Artrial Pressure, Severity and Incidence of Hypotension to be monitered every 3 minute upto 15 minute, and every 5 minute till completion of surgery.
