Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  dexmedetomidine is commonly given with local anaesthetic ropivacaine for upper limb regional blocks. Administration of additional analgesic drug will be done if analgesia is not adequate   injection diclofenac 75 mg intravenously will be given as rescue analgesic agent. 
Intervention  we will compare effects of dexamethasone when used with ropivacaine for upper limb blocks. it sefficacy will be compared to the routinely given drug dexmedetomidine  if analgesia is not adequate injection diclofenac 75 mg will be administered intravenously

Brief Summary   This study will be carried out to compare the efficacy of drugs Dexamethasone versus Dexmedetomidine when administered as an adjuvant drug to the local anaesthetic drug Ropivacaine in Supraclavicular brachial plexus blocks which is a mode of regional anaesthesia for upper limb surgeries
Our primary goal will be the onset time , duration of motor and sensory blocks and the quality of intraoperative analgesia
