Comparative Study of Effect of Intrathecal Tramadol 20 Mg Use as Adjuvant with Hyperbaric Bupivacaine and Hyperbaric Bupivacaine for Postoperative Analgesia in Infraumblical Surgeries
Abstract: Background and aim: To assess and compare the analgesic effect of intrathecal 20mg tramadol as anadjuvant to intrathecal 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine and 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine alone in infraumbilical surgeries, with the following objectives. Difference in mean time duration for need of first rescue analgesia. Methodology: The present study was conducted on 60 patients divided into two group 30 each Group A received 3.0 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine + 0.4 ml of tramadol (20mg) intrathecally. Group B received 3.0 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine + 0.4 ml of normal saline intrathecally. Patients were observed for vital parameters and sensory & motor block onset & duration intra operatively & post operatively. Result: The mean time for onset of sensory block was 2.24 ? 0.388min. in Group A as compared to 3.51 ? 0.612 min. in Group B. The difference in the mean time for onset of sensory block was statistically significant (P
