“…These findings indicate that dexmedetomidine has rapider onset but shorter duration, whereas granisetron has fewer hemodynamic alterations. 29 In the study by Abotaleb et al, 29 both drugs effectively reduced shivering, but the hemodynamic effects of dexmedetomidine were higher, consistent with the results of our study. Ameta et al 22 compared the prophylactic effects of ketamine, tramadol, and dexmedetomidine.…”

“… 19 Bajwa et al 20 demonstrated that dexmedetomidine reduces postoperative shivering. Abotaleb et al 29 compared the effects of dexmedetomidine and granisetron on the control of shivering after anesthesia. They found no significant difference in the time for the onset of shivering, severity of shivering, response rate and the need for re-administration of the drugs between the two groups.…”

“…It lowers the shivering threshold temperature by increasing the range of temperature thereby not stimulating the thermoregulatory defence mechanism of the body. 9 Ondansetron, which is 5-HT3 antagonist, is a common anti-emetic, and can be used to prevent post spinal shivering. Reduced incidence of shivering is attributed to inhibition of 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 (5-HT3) system 10 .…”

“…Dexmedetomidine, an α2 adrenergic receptor agonist, exerts its analgesic and sedative effects through its α2 receptor affinity. 10 Li, et al 11 suggested that dexmedetomidine can increase the efficacy and prolong the duration of local anesthetic blockade.…”
