Brief Summary  

This study will be a randomized double blinded, prospective, comparative study, to be carried out in 60 patients, of ASA I and II undergoing lower limb surgery with combined femoral and sciatic nerve block.

The patients will be randomly divided into two groups of 30 each. Group A (n=30) will receive inj. 0.5% Ropivacaine (40ml) with 25 micrograms dexmedetomidine. Group B (n=30) will receive inj. 0.5% plain Ropivacaine (40ml).

The onset and duration of sensory block, motor block, post- operative analgesia, time to first rescue analgesic and side effects will be assessed and recorded.

All the findings and observations made during the entire study will be tabulated, graphically depicted whenever possible, statistically analysed and inference drawn to evaluate and compare the two groups on sensory and motor block onset, duration and side effects.
