Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The primary or main outcome of this study is faster treatment of shivering in patients with shivering after anesthesia. (Reduce patients' chills). Timepoint: The degree of shivering in patients is determined and recorded before receiving the drug and from zero to 10 minutes every minute after receiving the drug. Method of measurement: Postoperative shivering grading: Based on 5-digit grading (0 to 4) Grade 0: No shivering. Grade 1: Mild cold and chills on face or neck or one or more of the symptoms: Mild peripheral vasoconstriction, peripheral cyanosis, body hair spiking for no other reason. Grade 2: Moderate chills (involvement of one muscle group: oral muscle spasm) Grade 3: Severe chills (involvement of more than one muscle group without generalized involvement: spasm of all facial muscles) Grade 4: Generalized body chills.
