The comparison between the effect of using Isoflurane and Propofol for anesthesia on the outbreak of shivering among patients undergoing Rhinoplasty Surgery

Abstract

Background: The postoperative shivering is one of the common complications of anesthesia after surgery and in the recovery room, which can cause the increased systemic blood pressure, oxygen consumption, heart rate and the cardiac arrhythmias among patients. Due to the variety of drugs used in general anesthesia, and necessity of choosing the effective intravenous and the inhaled drugs to reduce their potential complications, this study was done to compare the effects of the venous propofol drug and the anesthesia Isoflurane gas on the incidence rate of postoperative shivering.
