Actual (reported)Combined spinal epidural anesthesia (CSE) with bupivacaine alone is not sufficient to cover pain sequel during lower limb surgeries. Previous studies used addition of either Nalbuphine or dexmedetomidine to bupivacaine in epidural anesthesia giving a good result in pain control. In this study the investigators will evaluate and compare the addition of either Nalbuphine or dexmedetomidine to bupivacaine in epidural anesthesia to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of either drug.

Actual (reported)Duration of epidural analgesia
time elapsed from epidural injection of LA until VAS score (≥3)
within 24 hour postoperative
Maximum level of sensory blockade
the maximum sensory dermatome level after 30 min of administering the local anesthetic in the epidural space
after 30 min of administering the local anesthetic in the epidural space
number of top up doses required
within 24 hour postoperative
assessment of changes in patient's level of sedation
Sedation scores will be recorded just before the initiation and 2 hours postoperatively
patient will be given epidural bolus dose of 12ml (10ml 0.25% bupivacaine + 2ml normal saline), top up dose of 8ml will be given postoperative (6ml 0.25% bupivacaine + 2ml normal saline).
patient will be given epidural bolus dose of 12ml (10ml 0.25% bupivacaine + 100µg dexmedetomidine in 2ml volume), top up dose of 8ml will be given postoperative (6ml 0.25% bupivacaine + 20µg dexmedetomidine in 2ml volume)
Surgery will be started under spinal anesthesia. When sensory block regress to T12 dermatome Epidural bolus dose will be given epidural bolus dose of 12ml (10ml 0.25% bupivacaine + 2ml normal saline) The onset of sensory blockade injected epiduraly with maximal cephalic spread will be assessed by bilateral pinprick method along the midclavicular line, every 5 min for 30 min and then every 30 min. top up dose of 8ml will be given postoperative (6ml 0.25% bupivacaine + 2ml normal saline).
