Method of Generating Random Sequence   Computer generated randomization 
Method of Concealment   Pre-numbered or coded identical Containers 
Blinding/Masking   Participant and Outcome Assessor Blinded 
Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Duration of analgesia [Time (minutes) to demand of first rescue analgesic assessed by visual analogue scale]  From time of intrathecal injection (baseline) to the time when patient first demands rescue analgesia (minutes) 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1. Hemodynamic profile- pulse rate, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), Oxygen saturation (SpO2)
2. Time of sensory block at onset T 10(secs)
3. Maximum sensory level achieved
4. Time to achieve maximum sensory level(secs)
5. Time to complete motor blockade(secs)
6. Time to two segment regression(mins)
7. Time to sensory regression to S2(mins)
8. Side effects
 
1. Hemodynamic profiles will be assessed at baseline, every 2 minutes till 10 minutes and then every 5 mins till the end of surgery.
2. The various time intervals will be assessed just after the intrathecal injection and then every 2 mins along the mid -clavicular line, bilaterally till the desired effect/ regression were achieved(sec/mins). The maximum sensory level achieved was also assessed in the mid -clavicular line bilaterally.

Brief Summary  

The study is a prospective randomized double-blinded trial to assess and compare the effects of intrathecal administration of low dose 12.5µgm and conventional 25µgm fentanyl citrate with 0.5% bupivacaine (2 ml, heavy) in parturient undergoing LSCS procedures under subarachnoid block which will be conducted in the Department of Anaesthesiology, regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal, Manipur. A total of 60 parturient will be selected for the study and divided into 2 groups of 30 patients each viz. Group A (n-30) and Group B (n-30) .According to a computer generated randomization table, patients in group A will be administered 2 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy plus 0.5ml (12.5µgm) fentanyl citrate and group B will be administered 2 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy plus 0.5ml (25 µgm)  fentanyl citrate in the subarachnoid space L3-L4 In both the groups, the study drugs will be administered at a rate of 0.2 ml/min. in the subarachnoid space L3-L4.  The time to first rescue analgesia, block characteristics along with regression of the blockade, side effects (if any) and the hemodynamic changes will be observed, assessed and recorded by blinded investigator using the VAS, sedation scale, modified Bromage scale.The data collected will be collected and analysed using Student‘t’ test  for continuous data  and Chi-square test  for categorical data as and where appropriate.
