Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY IS TO COMPARE THE HEMODYNAMIC VARIABLE AND POST-OPERATIVE ANAGLESIA IN PATIENTS RECEIVING INTRA-THECAL NALBUPHINE AND FENTANYL AS AN ADDITIVE TO HYPERBARIC BUPIVACAINE IN BELOW UMBILICAL SURGRIES.

AIM:


Aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of Fentanyl and nalbuphine used as additive to bupivacaine in subarachnoid block in infraumbilical surgeries

Objectives:

COMPARE SEDATION OF PATIENT
TO COMPARE THE HAEMODYNAMIC CHANGES IN (PULSE RATE, BLOOD PRESSURE, OXYGEN SATURATION AND RESPIRATORY RATE)
TO COMPARE DURATION OF ABSOLUTE ANALGESIA AND EFFECTIVE ANALGESIA
TO COMPARE THE REQUIREMENT OF NUMBER OF RESCUE ANALGESIA
TO COMPARE THE SIDE EFFECTS/COMPLICATIONS IF any

Inclusion Criteria: 
● Patients willing to sign the informed written consent. 
● Patients of ASA Grade I and II of either gender. 
● Under Spinal anaesthesia for elective lower limb surgeries 
● Aged 18 - 60 years.
