Filter by:In this study, it is aimed to reveal the effect of the use of heated socks to be developed as wearable technology by providing temperature control on body temperature, comfort perception level and shivering development in healthy volunteers and this purpose constitutes the unique value of the project. The research was planned as a prospective, two-arm (1:1), randomized controlled, double-blind study. The population of the study will consist of 4th year nursing students consisting of an average of 250 people who will enroll in the fall semester of the 2024-2025 academic year. As a result of the power analysis performed in the G*Power program, the sample will consist of 70 healthy volunteers, at least 35 in each group. In the study, data will be collected with the "Descriptive Characteristics Form" and "Hypothermia Monitoring Form (Shivering Level Diagnosis Form and Temperature Comfort Perception Scale)" which includes the descriptive information of healthy volunteers. Healthy volunteers will fill out the "Introductory Characteristics Form" and "Hypothermia Monitoring Form" before being taken to the Faculty of Nursing Skills Laboratory for the application. Before the volunteers are taken to the single rooms in the laboratory, the environment will be cooled for 30 minutes with the air conditioner in the room so that the temperature is 21oC. The study group will wear socks developed with wearable technology and the control group will wear socks with the same appearance. The healthy volunteer will be asked to lie motionless on the bed for 60 minutes in a single room. Body temperature (with Braun tympanic thermometer), shivering level and temperature comfort perception will be recorded on the "Hypothermia Monitoring Form" when all healthy volunteers are taken to the Skills Laboratory, at 15 minutes, 30 minutes and 60 minutes, and when they leave the laboratory. The research data will be analyzed in a computer environment. Descriptive variables of healthy volunteers included in the study will be expressed as mean±standard deviation and median (maximum minimum), percentage and frequency. Changes in body temperature measurements obtained after wearing socks to be developed with wearable technology, repeated measurements, analysis of variance (Repeated ANOVA) if parametric, Friedman test if non-parametric, and post-hoc test will be used in intra-group multiple comparison analysis as further analy
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of prophylactic use of intravenous tramadol versus tramadol plus ketamine for prevention of shivering under spinal anaesthesia in lower segment caeserian section.
Perioperatively, patients experience an unnecessarily high level of side effects associated with their treatment. These side effects include nausea, severe pain, anxiety, and stress. Moreover, many patients develop postoperative delirium (POD) and neurocognitive dysfunctions, often resulting in long-term cognitive impairment, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. However, physicians, nurses and their institutions do not receive structured feedback regarding these aspects of each patient's well-being. They may therefore be unable to engage in the essential cause-and-effect learning necessary to evaluate and consecutively reduce such side effects. Effective guidelines conform prevention is the proven key to shielding our patients from adverse Outcomes. The Safe Brain Initiative's high-quality routine data-for-action is a sword and accelerator for moving towards patient-centred, precision care. Thus, establishing a foundation for value-based and patient-centred healthcare development. However, a turnkey real-world solution is challenging to develop and implement and requires substantial resources. As a result, such solutions are usually beyond the scope of a single institution. The SBI platform provides high-quality, real-world data to bridge this gap. It allows monitoring and in-depth analysis of cause and effect in the day-to-day routine of individuals, departments, and institutions. The SBI's approach is continuously improved and updated. An organization called the SBI Global Society oversees the quality and precision of science through experts in the field. At SBI Hospitals and Flagship centres, Masterclasses are conducted and can be attended alongside clinical immersions. SBI Solutions manages, develops, and provides technical and service support for the Safe Brain Initiative. Its service guarantees the professional and GDPR conform management of data handling and storage as well as the user-friendly functionality of the SBI-Dashboard solutions.
Single Shot Spinal anesthesia (SSSA) is associated with considerable perioperative shivering and can be challenging to treat. Some pharmacologic agents like N-methyl d-aspartate receptor antagonists, magnesium sulfate and opioid analgesics have been used for restriction of post-spinal anesthesia shivering. Besides that shivering is poorly understood, the gold standard for the treatment and prevention has not been defined yet. This study is to determine the effect of prophylactic intravenous administration of acetaminophen versus dexamethasone versus pethidine in controlling shivering induced by spinal anesthesia
This was a double-blind randomized interventional study of 100 patients divided into two groups. Group M received MgSO4 30 mg/kg, and group P received meperidine 0.5 mg/kg intravenously in 100 ml of 0.9% NaCl before undergoing spinal anesthesia. Participants were non-pregnant patients between 18-65 years of age, belonging to the American Society of Anesthesiologist physical status I or II. Shivering was regarded as significant if it occurred at grade 3 or 4. Data of patient characteristics, shivering degree, tympanic membrane temperature, vital sign, and side effects were recorded.
Shivering is known to occur in around 40% of women as a side effect of neuraxial anaesthesia during caesarean section.Women undergoing caesarean section under neuraxial anaesthesia are randomised into either the treatment group or control group. Women in both groups are observed during caesarean section. This study is to test a non-pharmacological and non-invasive treatment with two groups, an intervention and a control group. In the intervention group, intraoperative shivering during caesarean section is treated by placing two surgical gloves filled with warm water into the women's hands. In the control group, women will be treated with the current standard of care, which does not include specific treatment of shivering.
Spinal anesthesia affects the homeostatic systems resulting in intraoperative hypothermia and subsequently shivering. In fact, shivering may be seen after this technique in 30 to 40% of cases . Ondansetron and Nefopam have been used to prevent intraoperative shivering . However, no prospective, randomized, double-blind study has been conducted to this date in order to compare nefopam with ondansetron in the prevention of post-spinal anesthesia shivering. The primary objective of this prospective, randomized, double-blind study is to compare the incidence and intensity of shivering after spinal anesthesia for non-obstetric surgery in 2 groups of patients. Group A: Patients receiving 8 mg of ondansetron diluted in 20 ml of 0.9% normal saline over 30 minutes as they arrive to the operating theater(75 patients). • Group B: Patients receiving 20 mg of nefopam diluted in 20 ml of 0.9% normal saline over 30 minutes as they arrive to the operating theater (75 patients)
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimum dose of Dexmedetomidine to stop shivering in 90% of patients who experience shivering during scheduled elective cesarean deliveries.
- Background: The previous reports tried to reduce shivering and improve neuroaxial anesthesia characteristics by the systemic use of different drugs. This study was directed to evaluate the effect of pregabalin premedication on both shivering and epidural outcome data following single shot loading. - Patients and Methods: Eighty patients, ASA grade I and II, undergoing surgeries under epidural anesthesia were studied. The patients were divided into two groups: Pregabalin group and Control group in which the patients received 150 mg of pregabalin and placebo capsules respectively sixty minutes prior to surgery. Following epidural loading, the onset and degree of shivering were compared between the two groups. Also, the epidural outcome including onset, level and duration were traced and compared. The perioperative hemodynamics, sedation scores, patient satisfaction and side effects were followed up and registered.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a prophylactic dose of oral paracetamol on shivering compared with prophylactic intravenous infusion (IVI) dexamethasone in patients undergoing non-obstetric surgeries under spinal anesthesia.
