Brief Summary  

This prospective, randomized, comparative, double-blind study will be conducted after obtaining approval from the Institutional Ethical and Scientific Committee of Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital and written informed consent of patients. One hundred and ten patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria, scheduled for elective or emergency caesarean delivery under spinal anaesthesia, will be enrolled in the study. Patients will be allocated to one of the two study groups after randomization. Patients in Group H will receive height adjusted dose (0.06 mg/ cm height) of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy with 10µg fentanyl and patients in Group F will receive 2 ml (10mg) of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy with 10µg fentanyl for spinal anaesthesia. Following study drug injection, the incidence of hypotension,dose of inj. mephentermine used, sensory and motor block characteristics, incidence of complications such as bradycardia, nausea and vomiting and neonatal outcome (Apgar score) will be compared in the two groups.
