Brief Summary

Postoperative analgesia is generally the domain of the anaesthesiologist.Intrathecal morphing has been considered as the most effective opioid because of its potency and prolonged duration of action.Buprenorphine intrathecally also provides good postoperative pain relief without prolonging motor or sensory blockade. Hence, this study is designed to compare the effects of Buprenorphine and Morphine as adjuvants to Bupivacaine spinal anesthesia  in patients undergoing infraumblical surgeries. This is a prospective study involving 30 patients in each group. Group B will receive 2.8ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with Buprenorphine 60mcg while, Group M will receive 2.8 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with 100 mcg of Morphine. Time to first rescue analgesia is the primary objective and secondary objectives include time taken to acheive maximum sensory and motor blockade, vital parameters, adverse effects perioperatively.
