Filter by:This is a randomized, placebo-controlled trail, the objective of this study is observation the effect of sub hypnotic dose of propofol for prevention of nausea and vomiting induced by hemabate during spinal anesthesia for elective cesarean section. The primary outcome is the presence of post-delivery intra-operative nausea and vomiting in parturients. The patients demographic characteristics, blood pressure, sensory block level, and the medications will be collected.
In this study we would like to identify demographic and individual risk factors that place parturients at a higher risk for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and itching following administered neuraxial morphine for cesarean section. Our primary objective is to develop a reliable predictive neuraxial morphine induced nausea and vomiting (NMINV) and itching model.
Investigators will observe the incidence of post-cesarean nausea or vomiting and try to associate it with some risk factors.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting is defined as any nausea, retching, or vomiting occurring during the first 24-48 h after surgery in inpatients. Postoperative nausea and vomiting is one of the most common causes of patient dissatisfaction after anesthesia, with reported incidences of 30% in all post-surgical patients and up to 80% in high-risk patients. In addition, postoperative nausea and vomiting is regularly rated in preoperative surveys, as the anesthesia outcome the patient would most like to avoid. While suture dehiscence, aspiration of gastric contents, esophageal rupture, and other serious complications associated with postoperative nausea and vomiting are rare, nausea and vomiting is still an unpleasant and all-too-common postoperative morbidity that can delay patient discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit and increase unanticipated hospital admissions in outpatients.
Chemotherapy induces nausea and vomit for some large patients. But, some chemotherapy protocol has a high indices of the incidence as observed in a combination of Anthracycline and Cyclophosphamide (AC). To prevent this symptoms, some medication can be used as Ondansetron. By other hands, the traditional acupuncture on Chinese Medicine have been used a PC6 point to avoid nausea and vomit. More recently, a transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) also has been used for this application. Our study will test the TENS applied on PC6 point with two different frequencies (high and low) to evaluated the nausea and vomit inhibition effects.
The purpose of the project is to estimate the effect size of a technology based intervention for older adults with cancer for nausea and vomiting. Participants will be randomized to either an intervention or a wait control group. Outcomes such as symptom severity, quality of life and resource use will be examined.
This study is designed to examine the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting during 24 hours after elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients receiving preoperative intravenous fluid loading (group F), ondansetron (group O) and receiving neither fluid nor ondansetron or control group (group C).
The investigators tested the hypothesis that administration of intravenous dextrose as a maintenance fluid in gynecologic laparoscopic surgery would reduce the incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) compared with normal saline solution in the same dose. A prospective randomized double blinded controlled study was conducted. Eighty six participants were randomized to dextrose solution (n= 42) or normal saline solution (n= 44). The Bellville postoperative nausea and vomiting scores were recorded until 24 hours after surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of olanzapine for the treatment of cancer patients with chronic nausea and/or vomiting unrelated to chemotherapy or radiation in a randomized placebo-controlled pilot trial.
