This study was a prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel controlled clinical trial. The children who met the inclusion criteria and were treated with medium and high emetic chemotherapy drugs were randomly included in the experimental group (forsapitan group) and the control group (placebo group) in the ratio of 1 ∶ 1. The children in the experimental group were infused with fosapitan, dexamethasone and granisetron before chemotherapy, and then continued to be infused with granisetron and dexamethasone until 48 hours after the end of chemotherapy. The antiemetic regimen of children in the control group was placebo instead of fosapitan, and the others were the same as those in the experimental group. In this study, CNNC antiemetic scale and pediatric scale proposed by Dupuis were used to evaluate the vomiting data. The primary end point was the proportion of children who achieved complete remission (CR) in the delayed period (within 24-120 hours after the start of chemotherapy); The secondary end points were the CR rate in the acute phase (within 24 hours after the first chemotherapy administration) and the overall phase. The antiemetic efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were observed and analyzed.
To compare between intrathecal atropine versus preoperative administration of IV ondansetron in decreasing incidence of post operative nausea and vomiting related to intrathecal opioids in post operative period in perineal surgery as regard : efficacy and side effects .
On February 25th, 2019, ITALFARMACO launched Nuperal® in Italy, an association of doxylamine succinate and pyridoxine hydrochloride authorized by AIFA for the symptomatic treatment of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP). This drug is also recommended as first choice drug therapy by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) Guidelines and is supported by extensive international literature. Numerous epidemiological researches conducted in the US and Norway have highlighted the extent of vomiting and pregnant nausea. Unfortunately to date, there are no information on the prevalence of this phenomenon in Italy, on its impact on women's lives and on the interaction between woman and gynecologists. The research hypothesis of the present survey is that, using a representative sample of pregnant women in Italy, it will be possible to identify the prevalence and weight of nausea and vomiting symptoms during pregnancy in this country. The study is an open, non-comparative, multicenter survey and the aim is to evaluate the prevalence and weight that the symptoms of nausea and vomiting have in pregnant women in Italy. The study population will include 600 women found during weeks 18-22 of pregnancy who will arrive at the three sites or will contact the Investigators after the Ethics Committee (EC) approval.
Transdermal granisetron has been shown to as effective as oral/ intravenous granisetron when administered with or without dexamethasone. However, it has not been evaluated specifically against the delayed response of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in comparison with palonosetron, as the complete response for the delayed phase was not reported in the comparative study by Seol et al (Support Care Cancer 2016;24:945-952). Thus, transdermal granisetron needs to be compared with palonosetron as part of dual and triple therapy in the delayed phase of CINV. This investigator-initiated study aims to compare the efficacy of granisetron transdermal patch and palonosetron combined with NK-1 receptor antagonist and dexamethasone in the prevention of delayed CINV in Chinese breast cancer patients who received high emetic or moderate emetic chemotherapy.
Children aged 2-12 years scheduled to receive moderately or highly emetogenic chemotherapy were randomly assigned to arm-A (fosaprepitant) or arm-B (aprepitant). Children recruited to arm-A received intravenous granisetron plus dexamethasone followed by fosaprepitant infusion. Children recruited to arm-B received the same drugs as those given to children in arm-A, except that fosaprepitant was substituted with aprepitant. Granisetron and dexamethasone were given continuously until 48 hours after completion of chemotherapy. The primary end point of the study was to determine the proportion of patients who achieved a CR, defined as no vomiting, no retching, and no use of rescue medication, the proportion of patients who achieved a CR during the acute phase (0-24 hours) after administration of the last dose of chemotherapy. Secondary end points were the proportion of patients who achieved a CR during the 24-120 hours (delayed phase) and overall after administration of the last dose of chemotherapy.
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, sleep quality and pain are the common symptoms experienced by children with cancer. These symptoms significantly devastate the children's quality of life. Hypnosis is found to be effective in managing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, sleep quality and pain in children with cancer. In addition, virtual reality is shown to promote the effectiveness of hypnosis in managing these symptoms. However, no study so far has examine it effectiveness in Hong Kong Chinese children with cancer. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness in the use a virtual reality device to improve chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, sleep quality and pain among children with cancer in Hong Kong.
Cancer is a leading cause of death for children. Chemotherapy is the most common treatment for cancer. Notwithstanding the improved survival, children with cancer still have to face a significant amount of symptoms associated with chemotherapy. Two major symptoms induced by chemotherapy are nausea and vomiting. These two symptoms were demonstrated to cause serious disruption in patients' daily function and quality of life. Given these devastating impacts, intervening children with appropriate methods to alleviate nausea and vomiting during chemotherapy is therefore crucial. It is imperative for nurses to develop non-pharmacological interventions to reduce nausea and vomiting, with the goal of improving the QoL of children with cancer when undergoing chemotherapy First, however, careful assessment of nausea and vomiting in children with cancer is a necessary step towards designing appropriate interventions. This study aims to translate and validate an instrument (PeNAT) which can assess nausea and vomiting among Hong Kong Chinese children and adolescents undergoing chemotherapy
Recommendation is strong on physical activity (PA) in the prehabilitation of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for various types of surgeries. The evidence is however weak regarding ERAS protocols. Many studies have showed that physical exercise and PA have hypoalgesic effects on healthy individuals and they have better pain tolerance too. Here the investigators study changes in postoperative pain and postoperative nausea and vomiting for various types of surgical patients after performing preoperative PA at moderate or vigorous intensity Vs non-preoperative PA patients.
Carbon dioxide which is insufflated to inflate the abdominal area is absorbed from the peritoneal area and it increases endogenous catecholamines, which may consequently increase nausea and vomiting. In the literature, it is indicated that oxygen application which is one of the applications aiming to prevent nausea and vomiting is a cheap method with fewer side effects in the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting. In the literature, studies on the prevention of nausea and vomiting by oxygen application in different surgical interventions have not arrived at a consensus regarding surgery type and oxygen amounts. There are studies evaluating 80% and 30% oxygen amounts in removing postoperative nausea and vomiting. Taking these conditions into consideration; the study has been planned for the purpose of examining the impact of giving 80% and 60% oxygen to patients to whom laparoscopic cholecystectomy is applied on postoperative nausea and vomiting in the postoperative period. The study has been planned as a randomized controlled study for the purpose of determining the impact of giving oxygen (80% to the group A, 60% to the group B and control group C) to patients who apply to the general surgery service to undergo a laparoscopic cholecystectomy on postoperative nausea and vomiting in the postoperative period. The patients in the study will have the same standard anesthesia protocol and hospital routine. The study will be terminated once a total of 111 patients have been reached. In the study randomization, the patients will be assigned to the sample group according to weeks as they may influence each other. Data will be collected using Patient Introductory Information Form, which evaluates patients' socio-demographic characteristics, as well as Perioperative Period Patient Follow-Up Form and Postoperative Period Nausea-Vomiting Frequency and Severity Evaluation Form. Statistical analysis of the data to be acquired as a result of the study will be performed in the computer environment. The results to be obtained will be evaluated at p<0,05 significance level. It is expected that the study results will provide an alternative method, which will be used in preventing the possible side effects of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients who undergo a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Thus, the study results may make scientific and socio-economic contributions.
