Abstract
Regional Anesthesia is the choice in lower abdominal and lower limb surgeries. Epidural anesthesia lasts longer with lesser complications compared to general anesthesia. Butorphanol is agonist-antagonist opioid that resembles Pentazocine, while producing stronger analgesia. Fentanyl is a phenyl piperidinederivative synthetic opioid agonist that is structurally related to Meperidine.Aim: Comparison of Lumbar epidural block using 0.5% Bupivacaine with Butorphanol and 0.5% Bupivacaine with Fentanyl for lower abdominal and lower limb surgeries.Methods: Adult patients of ASA grade I & II belonging to 18-60 years posted for lower abdominal and lower limb surgeries Group 1: Bupivacaine (0.5) 10 ml with Fentanyl 20µg Group 2:Bupivacaine (0.5) 10 ml with Butorphanol 1µg
