Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of self acupressure and acupressure applied by therapists on pain, nausea-vomiting, and mental well-being in oncology patients. For this purpose, 93 individuals with stage 1-stage 3 cancer will be included in the study. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Is acupressure effective on pain, nausea-vomiting and mental well-being in oncology patients? Is there a difference in the effectiveness of self-acupressure and acupressure applied by therapist on pain, nausea-vomiting and mental well-being? The participants will be included in the study as three groups, namely the self-acupressure group, the acupressure group applied by the therapist, and the control group. Self-acupressure participants will self-administer acupressure. In the acupressure group, which will be applied by the therapist, acupressure will be applied to the participants by researchers who have acupressure certificate. In the control group, acupressure etc. No additional application will be made. Visual analog scale, nausea-vomiting and retching index, and mental well-being scales will be applied to all groups at the beginning of the study and three days after the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy, safety and feasibility of intravenous Fosaprepitant and Ondansetron for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting in thoracicsurgery patients. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the Fosaprepitant and Ondansetron group.The groups were analyzed and compared for frequency of vomiting in 24 h after surgery. In addition, we will further compare the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications, length of hospital stay, nutrition and quality of life after surgery in patients treated with different antiemetic prophylaxis.
Chemotherapy is one of the most common treatments for breast cancer, but the adverse effects can be severe enough to delay or make chemotherapy intolerable, thus affecting the efficacy of the disease. Women and younger patients are more likely to experience chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) . Therefore, antiemetic drugs is a key way to reduce chemotherapy side effects, which ensures compliance, and maintain quality of life. CINV is usually induced by two pathways. The central pathway is mediated by neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptors, where chemotherapeutic agents stimulate the secretion of substance-P (SP) from the vomiting center located in the medulla oblongata and nucleus accumbens, which binds to NK-1 receptors and induces vomiting. The peripheral pathway is mediated by 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT3) receptors, and chemotherapy stimulates intestinal chromophores in the gastrointestinal mucosa to secrete 5-HT3, which binds to its receptors to induce vomiting. Most guidelines currently recommend the combination of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, NK-1 receptor antagonists, and dexamethasone for high-emetogenic-risk chemotherapy regimens. Usually 5-HT3 receptor antagonists include granisetron, ondansetron, and palonosetron. Palonosetron is a second-generation 5-HT3 receptor antagonist with stronger affinity and higher efficacy than other antagonists. The commonly used NK-1 receptor antagonists are aprepitant and fosaprepitant. Fosaprepitant is an aprepitant prodrug that can be rapidly converted to aprepitant in the body, blocking the binding of substance P to NK-1 receptors for antiemetic purposes. Clinical trial has confirmed that the overall complete response (CR) rate of palonosetron 0.75 mg combined with fosaprepitant and dexamethasone was 54.9%, with 75.9% CR in the acute phase (0-24 h after chemotherapy) and 62.3% in the delayed phase (24-72 h after chemotherapy). Another clinical trial showed an acute phase CR of 89.8% and a delayed phase CR of 90.4% for oral aprepitant combined with intravenous palonosetron 0.75 mg and dexamethasone. The data suggests that both oral and intravenous administration are effective in preventing CINV, but there are no clinical trial results for oral versus intravenous administration. Oral administration is painless, has fewer side effects, and is a safer mode of administration, but bioavailability is different and drug absorption is affected by a variety of factors; whereas intravenous injection has rapid onset of action, but there are risks of injection reactions, phlebitis, and infection. Therefore, we hope to conduct a non-inferiority study on the efficacy of oral and intravenous 5-HT3 receptor antagonists combined with NK-1 receptor antagonists through this trial, which can provide more options for patients by combining the cost and administration methods.
This study is an open-label, single-Arm, phase II clinical trial of a Chinese Patent Medicine Yangzheng Xiaoji Capsule to improve the adverse reaction nausea of Niraparib in the first-line maintenance treatment in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and primary peritoneal cancer.
By comparing the incidence of PONV, the dosage of postoperative antiemetic drugs, the postoperative VAS score and the utilization rate of PCIA of hemophilia A patients in the NLR≥2 and NLR<2 groups, investigators could find out the high value in the diagnosis of hemophilia A, which is helpful to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment of hemophilia A.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare frequency with postoperative nausea and vomiting in ASA( American Society of Anesthesiologists) I, II patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Primary Outcome is the incidence of nausea and vomiting between 0-6 and 6-24 hours postoperatively and the need for additional antiemetics - Secondary outcome is detection of additional analgesic needs and complications between 0-6 and 6-24 hours postoperatively. Participants will receive aprepitant or granisetron for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting.
Nausea and vomitting related to drugs and anesthetic methods are among the important postoperative problems. Nausea and vomitting causing illlness feeling of patient are frequent after surgical interventions, cause increased dissatisfaction of the patient and prolonged discharge period. In this study it was aimed to evaluate the effect of peppermint oil inhalation on postoperative nausea and vomitting. Purpose and Type of Research The randomized controlled study will be performed on patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which is the most commonly performed surgical procedure, in a general surgery clinic of a training and research hospital.
As long as anesthesia is administered, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) will continue to be a frequent and upsetting comorbidity. Vomiting and nausea can significantly slow down recovery, raise staffing and drug expenses, and decrease patient satisfaction during perioperative procedures. Nausea it is a conscious recognition of subconscious excitation in area of medulla closely associated with or a part of the vomiting center, or it is sensation of discomfort at upper abdomen and unease sensation with involuntary order to vomit. While vomiting It is a mean by which the upper GIT rides of its contents when any part of upper GIT becomes irritated, over distended or over excitable. The PONV is the most feared postoperative symptoms & it may impaired dressing , surgical repairs & increased ( bleeding , pain , risk of gastric contents aspiration ) & if it is prolonged will leads to electrolytes , fluid imbalance & dehydration ; the PONV can occurs after up to 90 % of operative procedures ; The common risk factors of PONV are : young age , female gender, history of ( PONV , motion sickness ) , those not smokers , early mobilization after surgery , early drinking & eating after operations , procedures like (laparoscopic , gynecological , abdominal , ENT , squint ) , postoperative severe pain , narcotic premedication , possibly prolonged general anesthesia , gastric distention , stimulation of the pharynx , hypoxemia , hypotension , & dehydration. The PONV can reduced by: avoidance of triggers where possible, uses of anti-emetics drugs, techniques & procedures associated with low incidence of PONV (e.g. propofol) & give intravenous fluids; with prophylaxis the incidence is usually under 30% in high risk cases, the most effective approach for prevention of PONV is the use of multiple strategies & different drugs. The pregabalin (C8H17NO2), is a newer drug & recently introduced at 1990. as anticonvulsive medication. We evaluated the effect of oral pregabalin on postoperative nausea and vomiting in laparoscopic cholecystectomy cases.
Intraoperative Hypothermia is a common problem, our object will be to evaluate the efficacy of forced air warmer (Model # eq-5000) for maintaining core body temperature in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries and its effect on postoperative nausea, vomiting and shivering.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) was defined by the American Society of PeriAnesthesia Nurses (ASPAN) as nausea and/or vomiting in the first 24 hours after surgery and is among the most common complications after pain in patients undergoing surgery. PONV is divided into three as early, late, and delayed. Nausea-vomiting developing within 2-6 hours after surgery is classified as early, nausea-vomiting developing within 6-24 hours after surgery is classified as delayed, and nausea and/or vomiting developing within the first 24 hours after surgery are classified as delayed PONV. PONV increases the length of stay in the recovery room, delays starting oral intake, causes fluid and electrolyte imbalance, and causes pain, dehydration, delayed wound healing, decreased patient comfort, prolonged hospitalization, and increased cost. Therefore, the prevention and management of nausea and vomiting in the perioperative period in surgical patients are very important.
