Intravenous Paracetamol Versus Magnesium Sulfate for Control of Shivering Following Spinal Anesthesia in Cesarean Section
Intravenous Paracetamol Versus Magnesium Sulfate for Control of Shivering Following Spinal Anesthesia in Cesarean Section: A Comparative Study
Spinal anesthesia is widely used for cesarean deliveries, but shivering is a frequent complication that occurs in 40% to 60% of patients. Post-spinal shivering can cause maternal discomfort, increase oxygen consumption and metabolic demands, and interfere with clinical monitoring. Both paracetamol and magnesium sulfate have thermoregulatory properties that may prevent or reduce shivering.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of intravenous paracetamol versus intravenous magnesium sulfate in preventing and reducing shivering following spinal anesthesia in women undergoing elective cesarean section.
A total of 90 pregnant women scheduled for elective cesarean delivery will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:
- Group P (Paracetamol Group): Participants receive intravenous paracetamol (15 mg/kg) infused over 15 minutes immediately following the subarachnoid block.
- Group M (Magnesium Sulfate Group): Participants receive intravenous magnesium sulfate (30 mg/kg) administered immediately following the subarachnoid block.
The primary outcome evaluated is the severity of post-spinal shivering assessed by shivering scores. Secondary outcomes include hemodynamic parameters (heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation), postoperative pain, complications such as nausea and vomiting, and maternal satisfaction.

Post-Spinal Shivering Score
Tidsramme: Up to 2 hours postoperatively
|
Post-spinal shivering severity is assessed using a 5-point shivering scale where Grade 0 indicates no shivering; Grade 1 indicates piloerection or peripheral vasoconstriction without visible shivering; Grade 2 indicates muscular activity in only one muscle group; Grade 3 indicates muscular activity in more than one muscle group, but not generalized; and Grade 4 indicates generalized, whole-body shivering. Total scores range from 0 to 4, with higher scores representing greater shivering severity |
