Filter by:The purpose of this interventional study is to investigate the effects of aromatherapy on an acute care unit and whether it is effective in decreasing physical or emotional stressors that occur as a hospitalized patient. This study aimed to expand the limited literature on aromatherapy use in hospitalized adults and its effectiveness in decreasing pain, anxiety, and nausea. The hypothesis was that use of aromatherapy would decrease pain, anxiety and nausea in hospitalized adults and increase patient satisfaction. While there is anecdotal evidence of its efficacy, few studies exist evaluating its effectiveness within peer-reviewed journals, specifically on acute care medical surgical units.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting is one of the most common complications after laparoscopic surgeries. The investigators aimed to evaluate the effects of intraoperative high fraction of inspired oxygen in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting according to Apfel score in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients.
Aim: The aim of the present study was to examine the effect on venous dilation, procedure duration and pain severity of local hot, cold and vibration applications performed on the intervention area before peripheral intravenous catheterization in adults. Methods: The study included 120 adults who were randomly selected between March and August 2023. One application group (n=30) received local hot application, one group (n=30) received local cold application, and one (n=30) received local vibration using the Buzzy® device. The applications, to the site of the peripheral intravenous catheterization, lasted one minute. The control group (n=30) the received standard peripheral intravenous catheterization application. The groups' venous dilation was assessed on the vein assessment scale and the level of pain felt during catheterization was assessed using a visual analog scale.
It is an experimental study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of cold application to the LI4 point of the hand to reduce/eliminate pain, nausea and anxiety in postoperative patients. The population of the study consisted of 116 individuals who underwent abdominal surgery with the open surgery method in a state hospital between February 2022 and November 2022 and were followed up in the inpatient ward. The study was completed with 80 individuals constituting the experimental group (n=40) and the control group (n=40). Patient information form, Mcgill Melzack short pain form, Visual Analog Scale, STAI - TX and Cold Application Evaluation Form were used to collect data. Patients in the experimental group underwent cold application with ice cubes for a total of 20 minutes as 2 minutes of cold application and 15 seconds of waiting 4-6 hours after the patient was admitted to the clinic after surgical intervention. Follow-up was performed before cold application, immediately after cold application, 30 minutes after the end of cold application, 1 hour and 2 hours after the end of cold application.

The goal of this observational study is to to evaluate the effects of a throat pack soaked with saline at +4 ºC on postoperative throat pain (POTP) and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in dental surgical procedures performed under general anesthesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How long can we keep the pharyngeal mucosa cold using tampons and cold wash solutions? 2. Does cooling the pharyngeal mucosa reduce the incidence of postoperative sore throat and nausea and vomiting?
This study will answer the following research question: Is acutaping has therapeutic implications on symptoms of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy?
The purpose of this study is to identify the risk factors for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in surgical patients undergoing patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA).
Patients planned for laparoscopic cholecystectomy will be included in this study. The effects of liberal and restrictive fluid regimens given peroperatively to patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy will be compared on postoperative nausea and vomiting. The aim of this study is to investigate which regimen is more effective on postoperative nausea and vomiting in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The current clinical trial will include 160 children who will be presented with vomiting to the Outpatient Department of the Children's Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University. Participants will be assigned randomly to receive either a dispersible film Ondansetron or oral Granisetron. After initial assessment, both groups will be followed up after 6 and 48 hours to check the frequency of vomiting, diarrhea, fever, headache as well as the return of appetite and the need for further treatment. The impact of nausea and vomiting on patients' daily lives will be assessed using a modified version of the Functional Living Index-Emesis (FLIE).
