Brief Summary  

To compare the effects of Fentanyl and Clonidine as adjuvant to  0.75% hyperbaric Ropivacaine on duration of intrathecal block .                                                                                                     

Objective:-

Primary

1.     To determine the duration of sensory and motor block.

2.     To determine time of 1st rescue analgesia.

Secondary

1.     To determine Onset of sensory and motor block.

2.     To determine Haemodynamic changes.

3.     To determine Side effects if any.   

Group allocation-The patients undergoing elective lower limb surgeries will be divided   into one of the two groups of 40 each

Group-RF (40)-2.5ml of 0.75% hyperbaric ropivacaine + 25 mcg fentanyl (0.5 ml) =total volume 3.0 ml Group-RC (40)-2.5ml of 0.75% hyperbaric ropivacaine + 15 mcg clonidine (0.1 ml)+ 0.4 ml normal saline= total volume 3.0 ml.

Study drug will be prepared by first anaesthesiologist in a sterile unlabelled syringe according to group allocation. Under all aseptic precautions, lumbar puncture will be performed in L2–L3/L3–L4 inter vertebral space in sitting position using a 25G Quincke’s spinal needle and study drug will be injected by the second anaesthesiologist who will remain blinded to composition of drug.. Time of intrathecal injection will be noted. Continuous Monitoring of the BP, HR, SpO2, and ECG will be done.

Sensory block will be assessed by the loss of sensation to pinprick using a 25G blunt needle along the mid-axillary line bilaterally every 2 min till two consecutive readings remain the same i.e., highest cephalad spread of sensory block has occurred. The time of sensory block at T12 will be noted as onset of sensory block and the surgeon will be allowed to start the surgery. Regression of sensory block till S1 will be noted as duration of sensory block. Time of 1st rescue analgesia will be determined from the time of onset of sensory block till patient demands the first rescue analgesic and/ or VAS > 3 in post-anaesthesia care unit. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is used, wherein 0=no pain, and 10=severe pain every 15 minutes in the post anaestheia care unit. Rescue analgesia will be given with Inj. Diclofenac 75 mg iv infision. 

Motor block will be assessed according to Bromage scale i.e., Bromage 0: Patients able to move hip, knee, and ankle, Bromage 1: Patients unable to move hip but able to move the knee and ankle, Bromage 2: Patient unable to move hip and knee but able to move the ankle, Bromage 3: Patient unable to move hip, knee, and ankle. Motor block will be accessed every 2 minute interval. Onset of maximum motor block is defined as the time from intrathecal injection of the drug to attain Bromage scale 3. Duration of motor block is defined as the time taken from the onset of motor block to complete recovery of motor block i.e. Bromage score of 0. Complications such as hypotension, bradycardia, nausea, vomiting, shivering, pruritus if any, in the intra-operative as well as postoperative period will be noted in a prepared Proforma and will be managed accordingly.                                     

Following parameters will be observed:

1.  Demographic parameters: Age, gender, weight, height, BMI and duration of surgery.

2.  Study parameters

1.     Onset of sensory block: Time from intrathecal injection to sensory loss at T12. 

2.     Duration of sensory block: Time from onset of sensory block to regression at S1.

3.     Time of administration of first rescue analgesia: Time from onset of sensory block to demand of first analgesia and/ or VAS > 3 in PACU/Ward.

4.     Onset of motor block: Time from intrathecal injection till Bromage scale 3.

5.     Duration of motor block: Time from onset of motor block to complete recovery i.e. Bromage 0.

6.     Incidence of hemodynamic changes such as hypotension, bradycardia and other side effects.
