Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Duration of sensory and motor blockTimepoint: The duration of sensory block was defined as the time of regression of two segments in the maximum block height, evaluated by pinprick. <br/ ><br>Duration of motor block was defined as time from which patient acheive modified bromage 3 to modified bromage 0.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1.Onset of sensory and motor block <br/ ><br>2.Time to two segments regressions of block <br/ ><br>3.Duration of Spinal Anaesthesia in each group <br/ ><br>4.To compare the hemodynamic changes among three groups: <br/ ><br>a) Heart Rate(HR) <br/ ><br>b)Mean Arterial Pressure(MAP). <br/ ><br>5.
