Comparision of Ropivacaine with Lignocaine Adrenaline versus Bupivacaine with Lignocaine Adrenaline in USG Guided Axillary Approach of Brachial Plexus Block

USG Guided Axillary Approach of Brachial Plexus Block

Abstract

Background: In the present study we have done evaluation of ropivacaine and bupivacaine in upper limb surgeries under axillary block with onset and period of blocks and hemodynamic changes. Subjects and Methods: The research was at all subjects of orthopedic department undergo upper limb surgery through the phase. A total 64 Subjects were elected and allocated into 2 groups arbitrarily (32 in each group). Group B received 20 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with 10 ml of 2% Lignocaine adrenaline, while Group R received 20 ml of 0.5% Ropivacaine with 10 ml of 2% Lignocaine adrenaline by axillary route. Intraoperatively, all the vital parameter was monitored. Postoperative analgesia was evaluated visual analogue scale (VAS). Results: No significant dissimilarity concerning age, weight and gender allocation among 2 groups. Sensory onset block of Group R is 7.06 0.08 min whereas in Group B it was 7.15 0.88 min. The period of sensory block in Group R is 587.7513. 37 min, while that in Group B is 589.75 13.12 min, motor block phase in Group R was 596.5 13.91 min while in Group B it is 598. 84 13.56 min. Conclusion: Sensory and motor onset block in ropivacaine and bupivacaine group were almost comparable and no clinical and statistical dissimilarity in the 2 groups.
