Brief Summary

THIS STUDY WAS CONDUCTED IN RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE CONTROLLED MANNER ON A TOTAL OF 60 ASA GRADE I & II PATIENTS POSTED FOR TURP SURGERY UNDER SUBARACHANOID BLOCK USING BUPIVACAINE AS THE LOCAL ANAESTHETIC DRUG. THE DRUGS FENTANYL AND NALBUPHINE WERE USED AS ADJUVANTS TO BUPIVACAINE FOR COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF EACH IN TERMS OF ONSET AND DURATION OF MOTOR AND SENSORY BLOCK AND CHANGES IN HAEMODYNAMIC PARAMETERS INTRAOPERATIVELY AS WELL AS POSTOPERATIVELY. ALSO, THE POSTOPERATIVE ANALGESIA AND SIDE EFFECT PROFILE IN BOTH THE GROUPS WERE RECORDED. ALL THE OBSERVATIONS WERE TABULATED AND SENT FOR STATISTICAL EVALUATION.
