Summary
Epidural analgesia is associated with early postoperative mobilization and rehabilitation
with minimally associated pain and discomfort. Analgesic effect of local anesthetics can be
augmented by addition of adjuvants in epidural anesthesia ensuring satisfactory postoperative
period. This study evaluates the effect of dexmedetomidine and fentanyl as additives to
bupivacaine for epidural analgesia.
