Description of intervention(s) / exposure
120 patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be included in this study. The patients will be randomly assigned into two equal groups; Group P: Pregablain group and Group C: control group. Group P will receive oral capsule pregabalin 75mg one hour preoperatively and Group C will not receive any premedication preoperatively. To ensure adherence to the intervention, empty drug blister will be returned to pharmacy.
Intraoperatively both groups will receive Inj. midazolam 2mg before subarachnoid block with hyperbaric Bupivacaine 0.5% 2.5-3ml and fentanyl 15mcg in the operation theatre (OT). Both groups will also receive parecoxib 40mg IV and paracetamol 1G Intravenous (IV) as part of multimodal analgesia. Both groups will receive dexamethasone 8mg IV prophylactically.
Postoperatively both group will receive Ultrasound guided Adductor canal Femoral Nerve block in the PACU with 0.2% Bupivacaine & dexmeditomidine1.0mcg/kg. Group P will receive oral capsule pregabalin 75 mg Q12hrly from the 1st dose for next 60 hrs. Group C will not receive any medication. Both groups will receive paracetamol 1G IV Q6Hrly for 24 hrs.
