Abstract
Intrathecal adjuvants are used to prolong the duration of block and provide post operative analgesia. Nalbuphine and Buprenorphine are mixed agonist-antagonist opioids which prolongs duration of block with fewer side effects. The study aimed to compare nalbuphine and buprenorphine as intrathecal adjuvant to hyperbaric bupivacaine in lower limb surgeries.
