What is Efficacy of Intravenous Tramadol and Low-dose Ketamine in the Prevention of Post-spinal Anesthesia Shivering Following Cesarean Section: a Double-blinded, Randomized Control Trial about?
## Background: Shivering is a frequent and undesirable complication of spinal anesthesia. it is a physiologic response to increase the body core temperature in an attempt to raise metabolic heat production. however, shivering may trigger myocardial ischemia; increase intraocular and intracranial pressures, increase wound pain, delay wound healing and interfere with pulse rate, blood pressure and electrocardiogram monitoring. we aimed to compare the efficacy of intravenous (iv) ketamine with iv tramadol for the prevention of shivering in patients who underwent cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. ## Patients and methods: A prospective, randomized, double-blind study was conducted. one hundred and twenty-three american society of anesthesiologist i and ii patients, aged between 18 and 39 years, who underwent cesarean section were included in the study. patients were randomly allocated to one of three groups: group s (n=41; control group) received saline, group k (n=41) received ketamine 0.2 mg/kg and group t (n=41) received tramadol 0.5 mg/kg. incidence and grade of shivering and side effects between the treatment groups were recorded. ## Results: The incidence of shivering was
