Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
This is a prospective and comparative study which will help us to compare the efficacy of two different combinations of low doses of ketamine and midazolam in prevention of shivering afer subarachnoid block for elective lower limb surgeries and will enable us to estimate the approximate drug dosage level which is most beneficial in prevention of shivering.Timepoint: preop 5mins 10mins 15mins 30mins 45mins 60mins 90 mins
