Brief Summary  

Wound infiltration by local anaesthetics has become increasingly common for postoperative analgesia owing to its simplicity, safety and effectiveness and its provision of effective postoperative analgesia, particularly after surgical procedures. Tramadol Hydrochloride is a synthetic analogue of codeine when added as an adjuvant to local anaesthetic agents, causes an effect similar to that of clonidine and it can modify the effects of local anaesthetics by directly or indirectly effecting sodium channels, thus contributing to more effective analgesia. Combination of ropivacaine and tramadol for wound infiltration after spine surgeries may provide superior analgesic effects compared with the sole administration of ropivacaine through the same route. However the optimum dose of tramadol as an adjuvant has not been defined conclusively. The present study is aim to assess the analgesic efficacy of two different doses of tramadol added to ropivacaine for wound infiltration in spine surgeries.

Patients will be randomized to receive their study drugs after the spinal surgery and before closing the incision line .The study drug as per group allocation will be injected over the incision line on the paravertebral muscles, cutaneous and subcutaneous tissue with equal volume on either sides. This will be followed by reversal of residual neuro-muscular block and after meeting extubation criteria patient will be extubated and shifted to recovery room.

Post operatively pulse rate , blood pressure, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation , numerical rating score(NRS), sedation score will be monitored every hourly till the patient complains of pain or NRS > or equal to 4 .Level of sedation will be assessed by Ramsay sedation score.

Time to first analgesic requirement will be the time since wound infiltration done to the time when the patient complains of pain or NRS > or equal to 4. At that time patients will be administered additional analgesia with inj fentanyl 1mcg/kg IV. Postoperatively all patients will be given inj paracetamol 15mg/kg IV every 6th hourly.

Post operatively patients will be monitored for adverse cardiovascular and respiratory event, nausea, vomiting and any other side effects will be noted within 24 hours.
