    Abstract

    Background: Addition of clonidine to ropivacaine intrathecally has been found to improve quality and duration of sensory and motor blockade alongwith improvement in postoperative analgesia. In our study we compared ropivacaine alone and in combination with different doses of clonidine. Material and Methods: The randomised doubleblind study was conducted on 90 patients aged 20- 65years withASA grade I-III posted for elective anorectal surgeries of duration less than 90 minutes under spinal anaesthesia.Patients were randomly divided into three groupsof 30 each. Group I received (18.75 mg)plain ropivacaine. Group II received 18.75 mg ropivacaine and 50 µg clonidine and Group III received 18.75 mg ropivacaine and 75 µg clonidine. Onset and duration of sensory and motor blockade, haemodynamic changes, postoperative analgesia, sedation score and side effects were compared between the groups.
