Brief Summary  

We are comparing the analgesic effect of dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone as an  adjuvant to ropivacaine in ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients between the age of 18 to 65 yrs. Erector spinae plane block will be given bilaterally before standard general anaesthesia induction to patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy .The aim of the study is to compare the analgesic effect of two groups .Two groups are   DX- 0.2% ropivacaine with dexamethasone(10mg) ,  DM - 0.2% ropivacaine with dexmedetomidine (0.5mcg/kg). patients will be assigned into two groups by randomisation using lottery method, into  groups DX and DM. Postoperative pain using  NRS score at various time intervals in both groups will be noted, also 1)The time at which the first rescue analgesia will be requested post operatively in both groups 2) Total amount of analgesic consumption within 24 hours postoperatively in both groups 3) Time of initiation of ambulation. 4) Respiratory Function(FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC and PEFR) pre-operatively and24hrspost-operatively using hand held spirometer. 5) Incidence of post operative nause and vomiting PONV6) Patient satisfaction will also be noted.
