New research from Stanford’s Dr. Pervez Sultan compares IV treatments for shivering after C-section with neuraxial anesthesia—an issue affecting over half of patients. A systematic review of 20 trials (1,983 patients) ranks the most effective options.

Dexmedetomidine also ranked highest for: •Fastest shivering control •Lowest chance of shivering returning •Least nausea in patients

Why it matters: Despite years of research, there’s no clear guideline on the best IV treatment for shivering during C-section. This study strengthens the case for dexmedetomidine as the top choice.

The bottom line: Dexmedetomidine may be the best IV option for treating perioperative shivering in C-section patients, but more research is needed to refine clinical guidelines.

How common is pain during cesarean under neuraxial? Our review, published in Anesthesiology showed it to be v common, overall 17% (95%CI: 13% – 22%. Spinal anesthesia had the lowest pooled incidence of 14% (95%CI: 10% – 20% Epidural top-up highest of 33% (95%CI: 17% - 54%

New moms often face pain, exhaustion, and mental health struggles with no structured follow-up. To address this challenge, Pervez Sultan helped create STORK—a checklist to track postpartum recovery and catch problems early. bit.ly/45c29B4

This has been a tough but rewarding journey. I am looking forward to analysing the data and the next steps 🍾 📈 🤓
