Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To compare time of two segment regression from highest sensory level(min) with Dexmedetomidine and Fentanyl as adjuvant to Hyperbaric Bupivacaine intrathecally in orthopedic lower limb surgeries  after injecting drug sensory and motor status assessed every 2min till it reaches highest sensory level and bromage 3, then every 10min till 2segment regression, then every 20min till it regresses to S1 sensory level and bromage 0 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
to compare characteristics of block between 2 groups in view of
1.time from injection to highest sensory level
2.onset to bromage 3
3.time for sensory regression to S1 from higher sensory level
4. regression to bromage 0
5.time to rescue analgesia
6.numeric rating scale 6hrs after surgery
7.any adverse effects 
after injecting drug sensory and motor status assessed every 2min till it reaches highest sensory level and bromage 3, then every 10min till 2segment regression, then every 20min till it regresses to S1 sensory level and bromage 0, then after 6 hour asses about numeric rating scale

Brief Summary   A double blind randomized control study conducted to compare intrathecal dexmedetomidine and fentanyl as adjuvant to hyperbaric bupivacaine in orthopedic lower limb surgeries done under spinal anesthesia.
64 patients divided into 2 groups with 32 each, first group( group D) will receive 5mcg dexmedetomidine added to 2.5ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine and next group( group F) will receive 25mcg fentanyl added to 2.5 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine intrathecally.
Both sensory and motor status of patient will be assessed immediately after spinal injection, then every 2 minutes until reaching highest sensory level and Bromage scale 3. Then assessed every 10 minute till 2 segment sensory regression is seen. Then assessed every 20 minutes till sensory regression to S1 and Bromage 0. 
Severity of pain 2 and 4 hours after surgery will be measured by numeric rating scale(NRS).
Time for 2 segment regression is more in group D than in group F patients
We are also expecting longer duration sensory and motor blockade and longer post operative analgesia in group D patients
