A double-blinded randomized control trial to compare the duration of analgesia using morphine, clonidine, or dexmedetomidine as adjuvants to ropivacaine in caudal anesthesia in children undergoing infraumbilical surgeries

A double-blinded randomized control trial to compare the duration of analgesia using morphine, clonidine, or dexmedetomidine as adjuvants to ropivacaine in caudal anesthesia in children undergoing infraumbilical surgeries

Background and Aims: Adjuvants added to the caudal block prolong the duration of analgesia.
