Brief Summary   Buprenorphine is a potent analgesic widely used for postoperative analgesia especially through the epidural route. Transdermal patches of buprenorphine provide an easy, safe and sustained method of  drug delivery and avoids multiple pricks. This study tries to evaluate efficacy of transdermal buprenorphine in providing postoperative analgesia compared to epidural buprenorphine infusion. Side effects like headache, nausea, vomiting , respiratory depression , pruritis and dizziness will also be watched for.
