This study aims to investigate whether magnesium decreases the shivering experienced in parturients undergoing labor epidural anesthesia for Cesarean delivery.', 'detailedDescription': "Women who have epidurals in place and go on to require a Cesarean delivery typically have their epidurals 'topped-up' with a fast onset local anesthetic to ensure the lower body is fully numb for surgery. This is called an epidural 'top-up'. However, a side effect of epidural top-ups is shivering, which is uncomfortable for the mother and interferes with patient monitoring. Magnesium administration has been shown to decrease shivering in the non-pregnant population. Therefore, in this study the investigators aim to determine if magnesium given prior to an epidural top-up decreases the incidence and severity of shivering in the pregnant population."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '19 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
