Abstract

Background: Postoperative SHIVERING is an important problem during recovery from GENERAL ANESTHESIA. Corticosteroids have been recommended to facilitate recovery after cardiac SURGERY. Previous studies recommended 0.6 mg/kg DEXAMETHASONE for reducing postoperative SHIVERING in patients who have undergoning cardiac SURGERY. In our study, we used DEXAMETHASONE 0.15 mg/kg in patients undergone routine surgeries like laparatomy , thoractomy , orhtopedy , urology and gynecology.Methods: A total of 200 patients undergoing elective SURGERY were randomized to receive 0.15 mg/kg DEXAMETHASONE or placebo after the induction of anesthesia and before skin incision. Patients didn't use any drug continuously for co-existing diseases like: D.M., HTN, I.H.D. etc.Results: It is found that the patients who had recieved DEXAMETHASONE had a lower incidence of posoperative SHIVERING compare to the others who received placebo. (12% V/S 31% p=0.001)Conclusion: Small dose of DEXAMETHASONE (0.15mglkg) can decrease the incidence of postoperative SHIVERING in routine surgeries, when diazepam, morphin, S.T.P, O2 N2O, halothane are used for induction and maintenance of GENERAL ANESTHESIA.
