In the last two decades, regional anesthesia has emerged as an important and safer alternative to general anesthesia as it offers good muscle relaxation with rapid onset of action and fewer adverse effects. A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted on 60 patients of physical status ASA I & II, aged 20-60 years of either sex posted for lower abdominal and lower limb surgeries at Hospital. There was no statistically significant difference in the mean heart rate between the 2 groups at various time intervals. None of the patients required atropine for bradycardia. Overall, the intraoperative mean systolic blood pressure decreased in both the groups after anesthesia. However, there is no statistically significant difference in Intraoperative mean systolic blood pressure between groups at various time intervals.
