IV clonidine for post-extradural shivering in parturients: a preliminary study.
We have studied the efficacy of i.v. clonidine to suppress post-extradural shivering in parturients. Forty healthy parturients who received extradural block for labour (n = 20) or for Caesarean section (n = 20) and who required treatment for shivering after delivery were allocated randomly to two groups. Group I received i.v. clonidine 30 micrograms diluted in saline to a total volume of 5 ml (...
متن کاملLate intraoperative clonidine administration prevents postanesthetic shivering after total intravenous or volatile anesthesia.
Postoperative administration of clonidine is an effective treatment for shivering. However, the ability of this drug to stop postanesthetic shivering when administered intraoperatively remains controversial. Furthermore, the relative efficacy of clonidine during isoflurane and propofol anesthesia remains unknown. We therefore evaluated the incidence of postanesthetic shivering in patients given...

متن کاملExtradural clonidine for postoperative pain relief.
Suxamethonium and auditory evoked potentials Sir,—I read with interest the article by Brunner and colleagues on the relationship between suxamethonium and cortical auditory evoked potentials [1]. The focus of the article was the hypothesis that suxamethonium may cause arousal of anaesthetized patients, but no plausible explanations were offered by the authors as to the possible mechanism. I sus...
متن کاملExtradural clonidine does not potentiate analgesia produced by extradural morphine after meniscectomy.
We have studied the ability of clonidine to potentiate morphine analgesia in 28 patients (ASA I) after meniscectomy under general anaesthesia. One hour after surgery, morphine 3 mg (n = 10), clonidine 75 micrograms (n = 8) or morphine 3 mg plus clonidine 75 micrograms (n = 10) was injected extradurally. Morphine alone and in combination with clonidine produced similar and significant analgesia ...
