Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Group A (Phenylephrine)
Phenylephrine infusion started immediately after administration of spinal block
|
Phenylephrine infusion 0.3ml/kg/hour (equivalent to 0.5mcg/kg/min, phenylephrine dilution is 100mcg/ml in 20ml syringe)
|
Placebo Comparator: Group B (Saline)
Normal saline infusion started immediately after administration of spinal block
|
Normal saline infusion 0.3ml/kg/hour (normal saline in 20ml syringe)

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Presence and intensity of shivering
Time Frame: 2 hours
|
Any presence of shivering intraoperatively is recorded.
The intensity of shivering is recorded based on the Bedside Shivering Assessment Scale (BSAS) with a scoring of 0-3 (0 = no shivering, 1 = shivering localised to neck and/or thorax, 2 = shivering involves gross movement of upper extremities, 3 = shivering involves gross movements of the trunk, upper and lower extremities).
|
2 hours
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in patient's core and skin temperature
Time Frame: 2 hours
|
Patient's core (tympanic membrane) and skin (forehead) temperature is measured using an infrared thermometer.
