Clinical Trial Summary

This research trial will measure how useful Aprepitant is in preventing nausea and vomiting in children having surgery to correct scoliosis (curvature of the spine).


Clinical Trial Description

Detailed Description: This prospective, randomized, controlled trial will test whether adding Aprepitant to standard multimodal therapy regimen can further reduce the incidence and severity of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in children undergoing posterior spinal instrumentation and fusion. The primary outcome of the study will be anti-nausea rescue medication administration post-surgery, with secondary outcomes being the first instance of post-surgery anti-nausea rescue medication administration, emesis, headache, flatus, bowel movement, and sensation of itch; incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events; and worst nausea and pain scores post-surgery . ;
