Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Incidence of shivering after spinal anesthesia. Timepoint: 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Observation and patient inquiry.;Severity of shivering after spinal anesthesia. Timepoint: 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Bedside Shivering Assessment Scale (BSAS). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Central temperature. Timepoint: 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: The core body temperature was measured through the external auditory canal using a tympanic thermometer (Model GENTLE TEMP 520, OMRON Co.).;Nausea and vomiting. Timepoint: 90 minutes after the initiation of spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Three-point scale including: Zero = No nausea or vomiting One = Mild to moderate nausea or vomiting not requiring treatment Three = Severe nausea or vomiting requiring treatment.;Patient satisfaction with the spinal anesthesia procedure. Timepoint: 90 minutes after the initiation of spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Eleven-point numerical scale including: Zero = Complete dissatisfaction Ten = Complete satisfaction.;Heart rate. Timepoint: 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Vital signs monitoring device.;Mean arterial pressure. Timepoint: 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Vital signs monitoring device.;Oxygen saturation. Timepoint: 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Vital signs monitoring device.;Peripheral temperature. Timepoint: 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 minutes after spinal anesthesia. Method of measurement: Axillary temperature measurement using a standard mercury thermometer. | — |
