Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Shivering incidence and Shivering scoreTimepoint: As primary outcome patient shivering score will be measured throughout the surgery at 10min interval until end of the surgery

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Sedation Score , incidence of any adverse events like nausea and vomiting , hemodynamic changes like blood pressure, heart rate and SPO2Timepoint: Sedation score and adverse events will be measured throughout the surgery at 10min interval until end of the surgery. Hemodynamics, baseline values will be noted first followed by every 5 mins for the first 30 mins post spinal anesthesia and every 15 minutes until end of the surgery
