Abstract

Overview: The advent of modern methodologies led to the development of better analgesic and operative techniques. The block technique has been effectively employed since a long time. The present study was formulated to ascertain if any specific drug among the selected ones have a better efficacy in upper limb surgeries. Methodology: The present study employed a pool of 60 subjects who were randomly divided in two groups. The subjects were evaluated for operative and post operative parameters after administration of Ropivacaine and Bupivacaine respectively. Results: The study showed a shorter time for induction and regression of both motor and sensory block in Ropivacaine subjects, while Bupivacaine had a longer duration of action. Conclusion: Ropivacaine proved more efficacious as compared to Bupivacaine.
