Comparator Agent  Bolus injection of hyperbaric bupivacaine in spinal anaesthesia among patients undergoing femur fracture surgery  25 patients will be given spinal anaesthesia for the femur fracture surgery. for that they will receive single Intra thecal bolus dose of 0.5% Hyperbaric bupivacaine + 45 micrograms of Bupinorphine ( total 3.1ml) 
Intervention  fractionated injection of hyperbaric bupivacaine in spinal anaesthesia among patients undergoing femur fracture surgery  25 patients will be given spinal anaesthesia for the femur fracture surgery. For that they will receive Intra thecal fractionated dose of 0.5% Hyperbaric bupivacaine + 45 micrograms of Bupinorphine ( total 3.1ml ).First 2ml of dose will be given as bolus and after waiting for 90 seconds remaining 1.1 ml of dose will be given.

Outcome  TimePoints 
TO COMPARE HEAMODYNAMIC PARAMETERS (HEART RATE AND MEAN ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE) BETWEEN THE TWO STUDY GROUPS.  Intra Op Monitoring of Heart Rate Blood pressure and Mean arterial Pressure every 3 minutes for first 20 minutes. Thereafter every 10 minutes till regression of sensory block to L1 level 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Intra Op Monitoring of motor & sensory characteristics   Level of sensory block was checked every 3 minutes till peak sensory level that is two consecutive reading at the same dermatomal level will be achived. Thereafter sensory block will be tested every 20 min till the block regression to L1 level.Motor blockade will be checked every 3 minutes for first 20 minutesfrom start of surgery & every 10 minutes thereafter.

Brief Summary  

Spinal anaesthesia (SA) is routinely used to provide anaesthesia for femur fracture surgeries. Here the entire dose of the local anesthetic is administered all at once as a bolus injection . It has quick onset making it suitable for procedures requiring fast and complete anaesthesia. Bolus injection is straightforward to administer and requires minimal manipulation of syringe.

In recent literature, studies have been conducted especially in Caesarean section patients in which local anaesthetic is injected in fractionated manner for Spinal anaesthesia. In this method two thirds of the total calculated dose of local anaesthetic is initially injected ; and one- third dose after a time-gap of 90 seconds (1). These studies have observed dense spinal blockade with lower maximum sensory level in these patients.

In Spinal anaesthesia there is sensory motor as well as sympathetic blockade. Level of sympathetic blockade is higher than sensory blockade(2). If there is higher sympathetic blockade it leads to severe hypotension. In older population which routinely come for femur fracture surgeries, this hypotension is deleterious considering associated co morbidities. 

We will be conducting a prospective study to compare Efficacy of Bolus versus fractionated injection of hyperbaric bupivacaine in spinal anaesthesia among patients undergoing femur fracture surgeries. 

Primary outcome of our study will be comparison of hemodynamic parameters. Secondary outcome will be comparison of spinal block characteristics. We hypothesize that giving local anaesthetic in fractionated manner is better method
