Response - NO
Brief Summary   This is a comparative study between 2 drugs- dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone when added to another drug ropivacaine when used in ultrasound guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block. Monitoring will be done for onset and duration of sensory and motor blockade,  and will be monitored postoperatively for duration of analgesia. Changes in vitals also will be recorded.
