Brief Summary   A Prospective Double Blinded Randomise Controlled Study which includes patients undergoing infraumblical surgeries. they are divided into two groups . An Ultrasound guided IVC diameter and IVC Collapsibility Index will be performed in supine position by an experienced anaesthetist will be done . In Group A patients IVC collapsibility index will be measured , those patients with IVC collapsibility index greater than or equal to 36 percent will be administered with 500 ml of fluids over 5 min after which IVC collapsibility index will be measured again . If the collapsibility index remains greater than or equal to 36 percent again 500 ml of fluid will be administered over 5 min and IVC  collapsibility index will be measured this procedure will be repeated until the collapsibility index becomes less than or equal to 36 percent. In group B patients , IVC collapsibility Index will be measured , a conventional method of fluid loading of 500ml will be administered irrespective of IVC collapsibility Index . Hemodynamic paramters including mean arterial pressure , systolic BP , diastolic BP , heart rate and requirement of vasopressors willl be recorded
