Abstract :

Introduction –2chlorprocaine is a local anesthetic drug with very short half life and is very favorable for day care surgeries with addition of fentanyl or without fentanyl. It had less complications and above all fast recovery so reducing hospital stay. Methods and materials –patients between 18 to 60 years of age of either sex scheduled at Dr D Y Patil Medical College Pimpri pune given 2–chlorprocaine and 2–chlorprocaine with fentanyl. Result: Chlorprocaine was used as spinal anaesthesia drug as alternative to bupivacaine for day care lower limb surgeries. We tested chlorprocaine as spinal anaesthesia drug in 60 patients with and without fentanyl a prospective study. Spinal anaesthesia was successful for all the patients with complete block regression , ambulation and voiding in all patients within 130 minutes maximum. The main aim is to use drug for day care surgeries in lower limbs the complete regression of block in fentanyl group is 108.97±8.73 and without fentanyl is 99.0±7.77 and voiding is with fentanyl is 96.73±9.27 and without fentanyl is 94.03±8.15. Neither patient shown transient neurological symptoms nor hemodynamic complications.so we concluded that 2 chlorprocaine provides rapid onset and adequate potency giving surgeon complete blockade with early ambulation and minimum rescue analgesia needed with addition of fentanyl so it becomes preferable drug in day care lower limb surgeries.
