Article Synopsis
- Shivering is a common side effect after C-sections with spinal or epidural anesthesia, yet it often goes untreated.
- A clinical trial with 80 women assessed the effectiveness of intravenous dexmedetomidine (DEX) against a control of normal saline in preventing shivering during elective C-sections.
- Results showed that DEX significantly reduced both the incidence and severity of shivering, improved sedation levels, and didn't cause major side effects compared to the control group.
