Clinical Trial Summary

Comparing two treatments for shivering after cesarean delivery for labor dystocia under epidural anesthesia.


Clinical Trial Description

It is a double blinded randomized control trial. Study population: parturients undergoing a cesarean delivery for labor dystocia under epidural anesthesia experiencing shivering grade III or IV on the standardized shivering scale of Crossley and Mahajan Experimental group: dexmedetomidine 0.35 mcg/kg IV in 2 minutes Control group: meperidine 0.35 mg/kg IV in 2 minutes Primary outcome : Time to stop level III and IV shivering on the Crossley and Mahajan standardized shivering scale after the administration of the study drug Secondary outcome: Response rate, incidence of nausea, vomiting, hypotension, bradycardia, maternal satisfaction and a cost-benefit analysis. The hypothesis is that dexmedetomidine will act faster, will have a superior response rate with less adverse effects. ;
