Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparison of three fluid regimens for preloading in elective caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia.
The most common problem associated with subarachnoid block (SAB) for caesarean section remains the rapid onset of profound hypotension. This study was designed to compare the incidence of hypotension after preloading with Ringer's Lactate, Hydroxyethylstarch and combination prior to SAB in caesarean section. Ninety non-labouring ASA grade 1 and 2, aged 20-35 years, weight and height was 45-60kg and 153-165cm respectively divided randomly into three groups. ⋯ But in other two groups it was highly significant (Group RL p≤0.001 and Group H p=0.004). There was no significant difference in neonatal outcome between three groups. Preloading with low volume colloid (4ml/kg) plus crystalloid (10ml/kg) is superior to crystalloid or colloid alone.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparison of post operative pain relief between paracetamol and wound infiltration with levobupivacaine in inguinal hernia repair.
The present study has been designed to compare the intensity of postoperative pain in children by wound infiltration with levobupivacaine with that provided by paracetamol administration per rectaly. This intervention study was carried out at the department of paediatric surgery, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh and Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, during the period of January 2009 to September 2010. ⋯ Both groups were followed up post operatively for 23 hours. The intensity of post operative pain relief following inguinal hernia repair in children by wound infiltration with levobupivacaine is significantly higher than rectal administration of paracetamol.
