Patients were randomly divided in two groups, 25 in each and labelled Group – A (Buprenorphine ) and Group – B ( Nerve blocks ) duration of analgesia produced was compared.Results:
The mean duration of post operative pain relief in Group A was 5.70 ± 0.90 hours (342.00 Min ± 52 Min). While in Group B it was 11.26 ± 1.20 hours, (675.60 ± 72 min).Conclusion:
