Study Arms (3)

Control group

EXPERIMENTAL

Cases will be subjected to spinal anesthesia with hyperbaric bupivacaine 10 mg.

Drug: Control group

Intrathecal group

EXPERIMENTAL

Cases will be subjected to the same anesthetic mixture as controls with adding dexmedetomidine 5 μg.

Drug: Intrathecal group

Intravenous group

EXPERIMENTAL

Cases will receive hyperbaric bupivacaine (10 mg), in addition to IV dexmedetomidine (1 μg/kg loading dose, followed by 0.4 μg/kg/h maintenance dose).

Drug: Intravenous group

Interventions

The cases will be subjected to spinal anesthesia with a 3 ml volume (2.5 ml of hyperbaric bupivacaine 10 mg in addition to 0.5 normal saline). 50 ml of normal saline was infused over a ten-minute period, followed by 200 ml infusion till the end of operation.

Control group

The cases will be subjected to the same anesthetic mixture as controls with adding dexmedetomidine 5 μg in the saline component. 50 ml of normal saline was infused over a ten-minute period, followed by 200 ml infusion till the end of operation.

Intrathecal group

The intravenous group will receive 2.5 ml of hyperbaric bupivacaine (10 mg), in addition to intravenous dexmedetomidine, which will be started at 1 μg/kg loading dose diluted in 50 ml saline administered within 10 min, followed by maintenance at a 0.4 μg/kg/h dose diluted in 200 ml saline till the end of the procedure.

Intravenous group
