- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 1. To compare the duration of analgesia,onset of sensory and motor block of <br/ ><br>0.5% Ropivacaine combined with either Dexmedetomidine or Clonidine <br/ ><br>as adjuvants injected perineurally. <br/ ><br>2. Number of Rescue analgesic given in 24 hours in both groups <br/ ><br>3. Total dose of rescue medication consumption (tramadol and Diclofenac) <br/ ><br>in 24 hrs.Timepoint: Assessment of block quality by calculation of composite score of bromage scale and duration of analgesia was recorded by patient response.
