Filter by:Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) remains current as a complication and moderate evidence is available regarding the impact of preoperative oral carbohydrate-fluid administration on PONV. Honey, a natural source of carbohydrates, has an antioxidative effect and protects the gastric mucosa. Aim: To investigate the effect of oral honey and water for up to 2 hours preoperatively on PONV. Methods: A total of 142 elective thyroidectomy (experiment:35; control:37) and laparoscopic cholecystectomy (experiment:33; control: 37) patients were included. The experiment group was administered a 60 grams honey and 100 ml water mixture up to 2 hours preoperatively. The patients were monitored postoperative 0-6 hours using Rhodes Index of Nausea-Vomiting-Retching (R-INVR) and visual analog scale (VAS) for PONV.
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is an emerging treatment modality among the various types of surgical approach to obesity (1). The incidence of PONV in obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery, who did not receive antiemetic prophylaxis, is high at nearly 70-80 % (2,3). Postoperatively, bariatric patients appear to suffer from nausea and vomiting more frequently than normal weight or obese patients.
This is a Phase 1, randomized study to evaluate the rate of nausea in healthy premenopausal study participants following a single dose of BMT with or without a single 8 mg po dose of Zofran given 30 minutes before BMT dosing.
In the present study, midazolam and palonosetron in combination were more effective than palonosetron alone in lowering the incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the initial 2 h after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Postoperative clinical complications were not different in both groups.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the prophylactic use of low dose atropine and comparing it to metoclopramide for reducing intraoperative nausea and vomiting during cesarean section under spinal anesthesia
A Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Oral CL-H1T in the Treatment of Acute Migraine Pain.
This study evaluates if the activity of one-day of NEPA plus dexamethasone, to prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant AC-based chemotherapy, is maintained during all the chemotherapy cycle treatment (maximum 4 cycles).
BACKGROUND: Few researches have manifested that intravenous (IV) lidocaine or dexmedetomidine decreased the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). The investigators investigated whether IV lidocaine plus dexmedetomidine infusion could better reduce the incidence of PONV after laparoscopic hysterectomy. METHODS: Two hundred and forty women with elective laparoscopic hysterectomy were randomly divided into four groups: the control group (group C, n=60) received an equal volume of saline, the lidocaine group (group L, n=60) received IV lidocaine (bolus infusion of 1.5 mg/kg over 10 min, 1.5 mg/kg/h continuous infusion), the dexmedetomidine group (group D, n=60) received dexmedetomidine administration (bolus infusion of 0.5 µg/kg over 10 min, 0.4 µg/kg/h continuous infusion), the lidocaine plus dexmedetomidine group (group LD, n=60) received combination of lidocaine (bolus infusion of 1.5 mg/kg over 10 min, 1.5 mg/kg/h continuous infusion) and dexmedetomidine administration (bolus infusion of 0.5 µg/kg over 10 min, 0.4 µg/kg/h continuous infusion). Primary outcome was the incidence of the first 48 h nausea, vomiting and PONV after surgery. The secondary outcomes included perioperative propofol and remifentanil consumption, postoperative fentanyl requirement, Ramsay sedation score, and bradycardia during post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) stay.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a major concern in paediatric inpatient surgery and may increase patient discomfort, delay patient discharge, and increase the cost of patient care. The incidence of PONV after strabismus surgery is relatively high, compared with other inpatient surgeries, particularly in children. Oculocardiac reflex (OCR) is a phenomenon defined by bradycardia or dysrhythmia during strabismus surgery. Oculocardiac reflex is commonly caused by the traction on the extraocular muscle (EOM), which, through the ophthalmic branch of trigeminal nerve, stimulates the vagal center. The afferent arm of the reflex is the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve, and the efferent arm is the vagus nerve, which diminishes sinoatrial node impulses and leads to bradycardia.While there is a general consensus regarding the role of unmodifiable risk factors for PONV, including the number of muscle and the occurrence of Oculocardiac reflex or not, the role of modifiable risk factors, such as duration of surgery and anesthesia and perioperatively administered medications, is still disputed. In the present study, the investigators evaluated whether these factors may be associated with postoperative nausea and vomiting after paediatric strabismus surgery while controlling for a range of covariates.
BACKGROUND: Few researches have manifested that intravenous (IV) lidocaine or dexmedetomidine decreased the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). The investigators investigated whether IV lidocaine plus dexmedetomidine infusion could better reduce the incidence of PONV after laparoscopic hysterectomy. METHODS: One hundred and twenty women with elective laparoscopic hysterectomy were randomly divided into two groups: patients in the lidocaine combined with dexmedetomidine group (LD group, n=60) received lidocaine (1.5 mg/kg loading, 1.5 mg/kg/h infusion) and dexmedetomidine (0.5 μg/kg loading, 0.4 μg/kg/h infusion) respectively. Patients in the control group (CON group, n=60) received the equal volume of saline. Primary outcome was the incidence of the first 48 h nausea, vomiting and PONV after surgery. The secondary outcomes included perioperative propofol and remifentanil consumption, postoperative fentanyl requirement, Ramsay sedation score, and bradycardia during post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) stay.
