3.5.4 Incidence of Shivering
A total of 9 studies involved 9 interventions reported the incidence of
shivering (Appendix4 Figure 4.4.1 ). Compared with placebo,
dexmedetomidine (OR=0.16, 95% CI:0.06, 0.43), flurbiprofen plus
dexmedetomidine (OR =0.12, 95% CI:0.03, 0.49), magnesium sulphate (OR
=0.07, 95% CI:0.02, 0.36) and S(+)-ketamine (OR =0.05, 95% CI:0.00,
0.99) mean lower incidence of shivering (Appendix4 Figure
4.4.2 ). The league table (Appendix4 Figure 4.4.3 ) illustrates
the results of each intervention compared to each other. In the ranking
probability plot (Appendix4 Figure 4.4.4 ), S(+)-ketamine was
ranked highest among 9 interventions whose SUCRA values was 82.0.
