Article Synopsis
- This study evaluates the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine versus fentanyl as additives to bupivacaine in prolonging analgesia during lower limb surgeries under regional anesthesia.

- Both groups experienced minimal intraoperative hemodynamic changes and similar side effects, indicating that dexmedetomidine might be a more effective option for enhancing analgesia in this setting.
