Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Degree of post operative pain relief with single dose of intravenous ketamine during cesarean section  A visual analogue score will be used to record the participants pain score at 1, 2, 6, 12 hours following surgery. Participants will be asked to rate the intensity of their pain in the scale of one (no pain at all) to 10 (very intense and unimaginable pain). 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
First rescue analgesia used.
Total analgesic consumed in first 24hrs
Hemodynamic parameters for 24 hours post operatively.
Adverse effects, if any.
 
Participants will be monitored for common side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, headache, hallucination, and itching, and the prevalence of such side effects will be recorded at 1,2,6 and 12 hrs following surgery.

Brief Summary  

Cesarean section is one of the most common surgeries in the world. Controlling the postoperative pain and getting the new mother out of bed and moving as early as possible following the surgery will reduce the respiratory, cardiovascular, urinary and digestive side effects of surgery.


Opioids such as morphine and pethidine are most commonly used premeditations for postoperative pain. However opioids have numerous side effects such as addiction, respiratory depression, drug resistance, nausea and vomiting. Therefore, use of non-opioid analgesics for postoperative pain is preferred.

In this study we examine the effect of intravenous low dose ketamine on postoperative pain and need for analgesics, including opioids, following cesarean section with spinal anaesthesia using bupvicaine.
