ABSTRACT
Postoperative shivering and feeling of cold associated with it is rated as worse than pain by some patients. It has been a problem not only after general anesthesia, but also during and after spinal anesthesia. This editorial compliments an original article in this issue of 'Anesthesia, Pain and Intensive Care' on comparison of three different drugs for the treatment of postoperative shivering, and draws attention towards pathogenesis of shivering and its control. Shivering is not a point in time event and its cessation with pharmacological intervention does not guarantee against its recurrence
