Background: Shivering is a prevalent complication encountered by patients following anesthesia. The incidence of shivering after anesthesia can be influenced by factors such as age and the temperature of the operating room. The aim of this study was to compare the occurrence of shivering during surgical procedures among patients who experienced no shivering and those who did. Methodology: data from 60 patients who underwent spinal surgery under anesthesia. We divided them into two groups: 30 without shivering (Group A) and 30 treated with tramadol for shivering (Group B). Results: incidence of shivering among younger patients (<30 years of age). Furthermore, shivering was observed during blood transfusion, and high incidence with patient had undergone a cesarean section (36.7%), in those who received cold liquid during the operating (73.3%), and in those who had not undergone previous surgery (73.3%). Moreover, there were significant correlations between shivering and factors such as age, temperature range during and after the operation (°C), and the condition of the administered liquid during the procedure. Conclusion: the occurrence of post anesthesia shivering in relation to various demographic and procedural factors. The range of age and temperature during and after the operation showed a significant association with the incidence of shivering.
