Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   1) Spinal anaesthesia in pediatric patient is reliable.
2) Levobupivacaine 0.5% isobaric  in recommended dose can produce effective sensory and motor block.
3)When data of this study was compared with other study it can be inferred that dexmedetomidine 0.5% microgram/kg given before spinal anaesthesia can prolong the duration of sensory effect.
4)Sedation for procedure as well as during surgery is required in more number of smaller children than older children.
5)Dexmedetomidine 0.5%microgram/kg can be safely used in children between 2-12 year of age.
6)Spinal anaesthesia in pediatric patients is not associated with much perioperative complications.
