THIS STUDY AIMS TO COMPARE TWO DRUGS KETAMINE AND TRAMAL IN PREVENTION OF SHIVERING IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING SPINAL ANESTHESIA STUDY POPULATION IS PT UNDERGOING C SECTION . DOSE OF KETAMINE IS 0.25mg/kg and That of TRAMAL 0.5mg/kg.
This randomized controlled clinical trial compared the efficacy of intravenous ketamine and tramadol in preventing post-spinal anaesthesia shivering among women undergoing elective caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia. Seventy pregnant women aged 18-45 years with ASA physical status II or III were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either intravenous tramadol (0.5 mg/kg) or intravenous ketamine (0.25 mg/kg) immediately after delivery of the baby. The primary outcome was the prevention of shivering, defined as the absence of shivering throughout the intraoperative period using the bedside shivering assessment score. Secondary outcomes included the onset time of shivering and comparison of efficacy according to age, body mass index (BMI), and ASA physical status. The study found that ketamine was significantly more effective than tramadol in preventing post-spinal anaesthesia shivering in women undergoing caesarean section, with a lower incidence of shivering and higher overall efficacy. These findings suggest that prophylactic low-dose ketamine may be a more effective option than tramadol for reducing spinal anaesthesia-related shivering during caesarean delivery
