Abstract
The relationship between axillary temperature and postoperative shivering was examined in 302 patients who entered one recovery room in the Derbyshire Royal Infirmary over a one-month period. No relationship was found between temperature and the occurrence of shivering, or between conscious level and the occurrence of shivering.
