Comparison of Intrathecal Buprenorphine Versus Clonidine as an Adjuvant to 0.5% Hyperbaric Bupivacaine in Lower Abdominal Surgeries

Abstract: Introduction: Various adjuvants have been added to bupivacaine to shorten the onset of block and prolong the duration of block. Present study was undertaken to compare the efficacy of intrathecal clonidine or buprenorphine with bupivacaine in lower abdominal surgeries. Methods: 90 ASA I and II patients undergoing lower abdominal surgeries were randomly allocated into three groups(n=30). Group A received 3ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with 1ml normal saline, Group B received 3ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bup… Show more

“…Regional analgesia has shown to improve surgical outcomes by decreasing intraoperative blood loss, postoperative catabolism, the incidence of thromboembolic events and by improving vascular graft blood flow and postoperative pulmonary function [2].Spinal anaesthesia is a commonly used regional anaesthesia technique for lower limb and lower abdominal surgeries owing to its well-known advantages like quick onset, excellent sensory and motor block and avoidance of complications of general anaesthesia [3]. The discovery of opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord started a new era in the field of postoperative analgesia [4].…”

“…Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensory or emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage or described in terms of such damage. [ 1 2 ] Pain following surgical trauma remains a major problem for anesthetists and management of pain warrants more evidence. The objective of postoperative management is to prolong the sensory block without affecting the rate of motor block recession.…”
