Preventing shivering during spinal anesthesia
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if giving tramadol and magnesium sulfate through an IV can help prevent shivering in people having surgery with spinal anesthesia. It may be an option for those at low risk for anesthesia complications.
