The authors would like to investigate the blocking characteristics, surgical quality and side effects of intrathecal levobupivacaine whether there are any differences between the hyperbaric and the isobaric formulation for gynaecologic surgeries which need higher block level than the urological surgeries.

Detailed description

The investigators study in the similar patients, give the same intervention except the baricity of levobupivacaine. The investigators record the level of sensory block and modified Bromage score for motor blockade.

Conditions

• Observation of Neuromuscular Block
• Disease (or Disorder); Gynecological
