I/V bolus of dexmedetomidine 0.1 mg/kg as a 20 ml solution, followed by 0.04mg/kg/hr infusion
0.2 mg/kg iv of ketamine diluted to 20 ml followed by 0.1 mg/kg/hr infusion
Change in Shivering grade
Shivering of patients will be grouped into five grades; Grade 0: lack of shivering, Grade I: slight shivering (inconsiderable yet apparent peripheral vasoconstriction), Grade II: medium level shivering (muscular activity in one muscle group only), Grade III: severe shivering (muscular activity in more than one muscle group without generalized shivering), Grade IV: generalized shivering.
Time frame: Shivering grade of patients will be evaluated every 15 minutes interval after giving the drug till 1hour postoperatively
