Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Group H, ( n =30) will receive IV hydrocortisone 2 mg/ kg.
Group T , (n =30) will receive IV tramadol hydrochloride 1 mg/ kg

The studied drug will be diluted in 10 ml coded
all will be given as an i.v. bolus just before induction of general anesthesia by an anesthesiologist who is unaware to the drugs given.

Outcomes

Primary outcome [2] 291858 0
Shivering intensity will be graded by using a five-point scale that was used in the study of Honarmand and Safavi.

(Grade 0: none; Grade 1: one or more areas of
piloerection but without visible muscular activity;
Grade 2: visible muscular activity confined to one muscle
group; Grade 3: same as Grade 2 but in more than
one muscle group; and Grade 4: gross muscular activity
involving the entire body).
