Abstract
Background: The most frequent symptom leading patients to seek medical attention is pain. Not only a sensory modality, but also an actual experience, is pain. The way a person reacts to pain can vary greatly between individuals as well as within the same person over time.
Aim and Objective: The purpose of the current study was to investigate how the addition of low dosage intravenous dexmedetomidine affected the features of spinal anaesthesia with hyperbaric bupivacaine.
Methodology: The present study was carried out at Santosh Medical College & Hospital, Ghaziabad in 50 patients of age group 18-65 years & weight 30- 70 kg of both sexes belonging to ASA l & ll undergoing lower abdominal & lower limb surgeries.
Result: There were 18 females and 32 males in the study population. In the groups D, the mean age was 36.28 ± 12.70 years, while in the groups C, it was 39.36 ± 13.43 years. There was no statistically significant intergroup difference in heart rate, SBP, DBP, and MAP.
Conclusion: SBP, DBP, and MAP did not differ significantly across groups. Therefore, it was determined by the study that hemodynamic changes are not statistically significant.
