Abstract :

Background : Central neuraxial blockade is an important tool in the armamentarium of the anaesthesiologist. It is one of the safest and efficacious methods of anesthesia and analgesia; it is cost effective and has the added advantage of prolonged pain relief into the postoperative period. Objective :Comparision of analgesic effects of epidural Butorphanol versus epidural Buprenorphine in post operative patients after lower limb orthopaedic surgeries. Methodology :After institutional ethical committee approval, 50 patients were enrolled for the study. Base line heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure was recorded. Combined spinal–epidural anaesthesia was administered for all the patients. Postoperatively when ever patient complained of pain, epidural test drug was given. All continuous variables were analysed using the two–sample ‘t’ test and all discrete & qualitative variables were analysed using the Kruskal–Wallis one–way ANOVA
