Abstract

Background: Subarachnoid blockade with local anaesthetics provide intense analgesia by 
segmental blockade of central neural axis but the duration is short lasting. Various drugs are 
administered intrathecally along with local anaesthetics to prolong the duration of action. 
Present study was aimed to study effects of intrathecal clonidine as an adjuvant with 0.5 % 
hyperbaric bupivacaine in vaginal hysterectomy under spinal anaesthesia at a tertiary 
hospital.
