Intravenous dexmedetomidine versus tramadol for treatment of shivering after spinal anesthesia: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Shivering is a frequent complication after spinal anesthesia. Increasing studies have compared the effect of intravenous dexmedetomidine and intravenous tramadol on shivering after spinal anesthesia, hence we performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to compare dexmedetomidine with tramadol on the treatment of post-spinal anesthesia shivering.
