Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Anesthesiology - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
This prospective comparative study was conducted to study and compare the intraoperative anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia between 0.5% Bupivacaine and 0.75% Ropivacainefor spinal anaesthesia for percutaneous Nephrolothtomy surgeries (PCNL).The study was conducted in 80 patients with 40 patients in each group.Group B received sinal anaesthesia with 3-3.5 ml of 0.5% Bupivacaine and group R received spinal anaeshesia with 0.75%Ropivacaine 3-3.5 ml..Onset and duration of motor and sensory blockade was studied and compared.
