Abstract
Two groups comprising 25 patients in each went for caesarean section delivery under epidural anaesthesia. Group I patients received 50 mg (1 ml) of tramadol hydrochloride with 14 ml of 2% lignocaine with adrenaline (1:200,000) and group II cases received 15 ml of 2% lignocaine with adrenaline (1:200,000). Both the groups of patients were comparable in age and body weight. In both the groups, there were good operative conditions, insignificant changes in pulse and blood pressure. The neonatal status was also similar in both the groups. The patients belonging to group I showed longer duration (15.39 +/- 0.45 hours) of analgesia in comparison to group II patients (2.46 +/- 0.54 hours).
