Brief Summary  

Parturients planned to undergo elective cesarean section will be evaluated

                               

Patients will be selected based on inclusion criteria

                                

Informed and written consent will be taken from the study participants

 

On the day of surgery patients are shifted to the operation tteatre and monitors are connected

 

Spinal anaesthesia is given with inj.bupivacaine 0.5%(Heavy) of dose 10 mg along with morphine 0.1mg .

 

GROUP A : WILL BE RECEVING : One gradation of 10 mg/ml of  morphine that is taken in 5cc syringe[1mg of morphine] and diluted with 0.9% of Normal saline to make it 5ml so that each ml contains 200mcg , and half ml will have 100mcg.[ one step method]

GROUP - B : WILL BE RECEVING: One ml of 10mg/ml of morphine that is taken in 10cc syringe [10mg of morphine] and diluted with 9ml of 0.9% Normal saline to make it 10ml so that each ml contains 1mg , and one ml of this solution is taken in 5cc syringe and diluted further with 4ml of 0.9% of Normal saline , so that each ml contains 200mcg and half ml will have 100mcg.[two step method].

GROUP - C : WILL BE RECEVING: One ml of morphine [10mg/ml] that is taken in insulin syringe [1ml =40 units] , so that  1 unit will contain 250 mcg of morphine . This 2 units of morphine is taken in 3cc syringe and diluted with 2.5ml of 0.9% of Normal saline , so the final solution w ill have 200 mcg/ml and half ml will contain 100mcg.[ insulin syringe method].

 

 

Assessment of hemodynamics, motor block and sensory block

 

Intraoperative monitoring of HR, BP, SpO2, ECG at intervals of every minute for the first 5 min and every 3 min for rest of the surgery.

 

 

Patient will be shifted to PACU and monitored for post-operative nausea,vomiting and pruritus for every hour for first 4 hours and every 4 hrs for the next 24 hrs .
