Efficacy of prophylactic ketamine in preventing postoperative shivering.
BACKGROUND Treatment with ketamine and pethidine is effective in postoperative shivering. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of low-dose prophylactic ketamine with that of pethidine or placebo in preventing postoperative shivering. METHODS A prospective randomized double-blind study involved 90 ASA I and II patients undergoing general anaesthesia. Patients were randomly allocat...
متن کاملEffect of electroacupuncture in postanesthetic shivering during regional anesthesia
Background: Shivering during regional anesthesia is a common complication and is related to a decrease in the patient’s core body temperature. Previous studies have shown that acupuncture on specific acupoints can preserve core body temperature. The present study evaluated the effect of electroacupuncture in preventing the shivering caused by regional anesthesia. Methods: This prospective and r...
متن کاملEfficacy of Pethidine and Buprenorphine for Prevention and Treatment of Postanesthetic Shivering
Background: Postanesthetic shivering is a distressing postoperative complication. Pharmacological control is an effective method for treatment and prevention of postoperative shivering. Pethidine prevents or manages shivering far better than equianalgesic doses of other opioids. However, buprenorphine is an opioid with a similar structure to morphine but approximately 33 times more potent. This...
متن کاملEfficacy of oral Granisetron in uremic pruritus
Background and aim: Uremic pruritus is a relatively common and distressing problem for patients with chronic renal failure. Serotonin and histamine have been reported as possible mediators of uremic pruritus. Granisetron, a potent and selective inhibitor of 5-HT3 receptors was developed for relief of chemotherapy induced nausea. There are some studies about effect of Ondansetron in uremic...
متن کاملEfficacy and safety of ondansetron in preventing postanesthesia shivering: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
BACKGROUND Shivering is a very common complication in the postanesthesia period. Increasing studies have reported ondansetron may be effective in prevention of postanesthesia shivering (PAS). However, the results remained controversial; hence we conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ondansetron on the prevention of postanesthesia shiver...
