Brief Summary   Spinal anaesthesia is the commonly employed anaesthetic technique for lower limb surgeries. But it’s limitation is short duration of analgeisa. In order to extended the duration of block a number of agents are added along with local anaesthetic for spinal anaesthesia. Dexmedetomidine and midazolam are two such additives for spinal anaesthesia. In the present study we intend to compare dexmedetomidine and midazolam when added to spinal anaesthesia with 0.75% ropivacaine spinal anaesthesia.
