Protocol summary

Study aim
Determination of the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine with sufentanil in intrathecal ropivacaine supplementation on analgesia in the elective cesarean section.
Design
This study is a double-blinded clinical trial. One hundred and thirty-six patients will be selected in an available method and simple randomly assigned to two intervention groups. Then the intervention is done. After the surgery, the pain and duration of analgesia and headaches are measured by means of the VAS tool and recorded in the checklist, and the two groups are compared with each other.
Settings and conduct
The study will be performed in the gynecology ward of Imam Reza Hospital in Kermanshah. Randomization of patients between the first intervention group (dexmedetomidine /ropivacaine ) and the second group(sufentanil /ropivacaine) is done using random allocation software. In this software, the total sample size and number of nodes are entered into the software. The output of Shalam software is a list that randomly distributes patients in groups 1 and 2.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria include singleton and term pregnant women aged 18 to 45 years, having a body mass of 18 to 30 with ASA class I. Exclusion criteria include having any underlying disease, history of allergy to local anesthetic, dexmedetomidine and sufentanil, coagulation disorders, local skin infection at the site of spinal anesthesia, surgery Emergency cesarean section, and cases where we have to undergo general anesthesia during surgery.
Intervention groups
In the first intervention group, 5 micrograms of dexmedetomidine and 12.5 micrograms of isobaric ropivacaine 0.5%, and in the second intervention group, 5 micrograms of sufentanil with 12.5 micrograms of isobaric ropivacaine 0.5% isobars are injected intrathecally into the subarachnoid space.
Main outcome variables
Time of onset of analgesia, duration of analgesia.
