Resumen
Shivering is a complication that often results from spinal anesthesia due to postoperative hypothermia. Risk factors for shivering include age, the length of the operation, the operating room temperature, type of anesthesia, and having a low body mass index. One way to reduce shivering is by giving hot packs with a temperature <36 oC. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of hot packs in response to shivering in post-cesarean section surgery patients.
