研究概览
简要总结
.Shivering is a common postanesthesia adverse event with an incidence of 40–70%.
Shivering is not only physically distressing for the patient, but can have various other detrimental effects. It may lead to pain, patient discomfort, impede monitoring techniques, increase intraocular and intracranial pressures, double or even triple oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production, which might pose difficulties in patients with existing intrapulmonary shunts, fixed cardiac output or limited respiratory reserve.
Therefore by comparing the anti-shivering effect of Dexmedetomidine vs Tramadol post spinal anesthesia, a outcome can be achieved for a better anti-shivering agent amongst the two agents.
