Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Evaluation of postoperative shivering incidence.The shivering will be assessed according to the scale: Grade 0, no shivering; grade 1, no visiblemuscle activity; grade 2, muscular activity in only one muscle group; grade 3, moderate muscular activity in more than one muscle group; grade 4, violent muscular activity that involves the whole body.The patients will be judged to have shivering if they evaluate as grade 3 or 4.[Evaluation of postoperative shivering during the PACU stay period. This period can vary postoperative between 10-120 minutes.]
