Abstract
Post-operative pain, which is most stressful, is receiving more attention recently. Almost each surgical procedure is associated with post-operative pain and severity depends on site and nature of surgery. 1 since the newer narcotic analgesics are no more effective as analgesics than the old; and various traditional modes of administration are associated with significant complications role of Epidural administration of Narcotic drugs has come into vogue. 2 Despite the availability of many techniques to reduce postoperative pain, the search is on for a safe, simple and readily available procedure to lessen the post-operative pain. In this study we are trying to assess the effect of Epidural administration of Fentanyl added to Bupivacaine in Gynaecological surgical patients, studying its efficacy and duration of post-operative analgesia, which is likely to reduce the complications associated with narcotic usage and effective postoperative analgesia.
