Treatment of Postoperative Shivering with Dexamethasone: A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial
Background: Postoperative shivering is an important and troublesome condition during recovery from general anesthesia. Corticosteroids have been recommended to facilitate recovery and diminish shivering after cardiac surgery. Previous studies recommended 0.6 mg/kg dexamethasone for reducing postoperative shivering in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Objective: To test this assertion, we...
متن کاملEffect of Dexamethasone Before Induction of Anesthesia On Postoperative Shivering
Abstract Shivering after surgery is common and followed by many problems. Therefore prevention of shivering is important specially in elderly and Ischemic Heart Disease patients. The etiology of shivering is unknown, although is thought intraoperative hypothermia is a major causative factor. Another possible etiology is fever and chills secondary to activation of the inflammatory responses and...
متن کاملIndependent risk factors for postoperative shivering.
Postoperative shivering (PAS) is uncomfortable for patients and potentially risky. In this observational trial we sought to identify independent risk factors for PAS after general anesthesia. Potential risk factors for PAS were recorded in 1340 consecutive patients. Signs of shivering, peripheral and core temperature, and thermal comfort were recorded in the postanesthetic care unit. The data w...

متن کاملComparison of Ondansetron and Meperidine for Treatment of Postoperative Shivering: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
BACKGROUND The involved neurotransmitter pathways in the postoperative shivering (POS) are poorly understood. Recently, 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT3) receptor antagonists have been reported to prevent POS. We investigated the effect of ondansetron, a 5-HT3 antagonist that is used to treat postoperative nausea and vomiting, on shivering. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare the efficacy of o...
