Filter by:The purpose is to find out if intraoperative acupuncture performed by needling PC 6 and LI4 point bilaterally, and Yin Tang point will help reduce the incidence postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy when added to a prophylactic regimen consisting of ondansetron and dexamethasone. The hypothesis is that the addition of this acupuncture treatment to ondansetron and dexamethasone given for prophylaxis will help reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy when compared to patients receiving ondansetron and dexamethasone without acupuncture.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of two antiemetic drugs, palonosetron and ondansetron, when given alongside dexamethasone as a preventive measure against early and delayed postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in adult and adolescent patients with idiopathic scoliosis undergoing posterior spinal fusion surgery under total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). The main questions the study aims to answer are: - How effective is palonosetron compared to ondansetron, both combined with dexamethasone, in preventing PONV after scoliosis surgery? - Are there any differences in the need for rescue antiemetics, occurrence of adverse effects related to the study drugs, and patient satisfaction between the two treatment groups? Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either palonosetron or ondansetron in addition to dexamethasone as part of their anesthesia and antiemetic regimen. The incidence and/ or severity of nausea, vomiting and retching will be assessed at 1 hour, 4 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours after surgery.
As a result of the literature review, it has been seen that it has not yet been clarified whether cold application methods are effective on postoperative nausea and vomiting, and academic studies on this subject are needed. The aim of the planned study was to conduct a randomized controlled experimental study to evaluate the effect of the cold application method on nausea and vomiting and the need for antiemetic drugs in the early postoperative period. The research hypotheses are as follows: H1:Cold application method reduces nausea and vomiting in the early postoperative period. H1:The cold application method reduces the need for antiemetic drugs in the early postoperative period. H1:Cold application method in the early postoperative period increases patient satisfaction. Condition or disease: Postoperative nausea and vomiting,Postoperative antiemetic use status,Patient satisfaction,Effects of cold application method Intervention/treatment: There is an intervention group in which the cold application method is applied.
Post-operative nausea and vomiting are a leading cause of recovery room delays and low patient satisfaction. Complications such as suture line tension, wound hemorrhage and dehiscence, elevated intracranial pressure, pulmonary aspiration, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalance have been linked to nausea and vomiting. Many studies were done to explore the effects of propofol and dexmedetomidine on the incidence of post operative nausea and vomiting (PONV). In this study, we will compare propofol infusion to dexmedetomidine infusion on the incidence of PONV in patients undergoing ureteroscopic procedures under spinal anesthesia in the age group from 18 to 60 years with more than one risk factor for PONV (female, history of PONV, non-smoking).
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of a technology-based intervention for managing nausea and vomiting in older adults with cancer. Participants will be randomized to either an intervention or control group. Outcomes such as symptom severity, quality of life, and resource use will be examined.
Randomized trial which will aim to evaluate whether prophylactic use of ondansetron and ibuprofen will decrease side effects associated with medical abortion and increase patient satisfaction.
Nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy are considered by patients as the main side effects of cancer treatment, which affect the quality of treatment and life.At present, NCCN guidelines have recommended three or four drug regimens for highly emetic chemotherapy (HEC) to prevent vomiting, all containing dexamethasone.However, its side effects such as moderate to severe insomnia, hyperglycemia, dyspepsia, upper abdominal discomfort, irritability, increased appetite, weight gain and acne are gathering increasing concerns.For certain patients, the use of dexamethasone should be avoided.Analysis shows that olanzapine can replace the effect of dexamethasone.Hence, the investigators initiated this prospective, multi-center, phase III study to validate the dexamethasone-free protocol: removing dexamethasone from a three drug regimen containing olanzapine, dexamethasone, and 5-HT3RA.
Hormonal and physical changes during pregnancy can cause nausea and vomiting. Nausea and vomiting are common, especially in the first trimester. The incidence of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy varies between 50% and 80%. Symptoms range from mild nausea to excessive vomiting, dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and weight loss to a severe form of nausea-vomiting called hyperemesis gravidarum (HG). Nausea-vomiting can cause discomfort in the pregnant woman in its mildest form, and a serious threat to the life of the mother and fetus in the most severe form. Nausea and vomiting during pregnancy is an important symptom that reduces the quality of life of the pregnant woman.In order to reduce the complaints of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, women are offered suggestions such as changing their eating habits and staying away from stress. Complementary and alternative methods can also be used to reduce nausea and vomiting. Acupressure, which is one of these methods, is accepted as an important, effective, supportive and economical complementary method as a non-invasive technique that midwives can directly include in the control of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, reducing the severity of labor pain, accelerating the birth process, gynecological problems and assisting breastfeeding. The efficacy of acupressure applied to P6, ST36 and CV8 points in cases of nausea and vomiting experienced after motion sickness, chemotherapy or surgery has been investigated in many studies. The CV8 point has not been studied sufficiently in reducing nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a band-aid applied to the umbilical area (Shenque-CV8 point), which is a method that pregnant women can apply on their own, on nausea-vomiting during pregnancy.The sample of the study will consist of 60 pregnant women, 30 in the application group and 30 in the control group. Which of the application/control groups of the pregnant women constituting the sample group will be included will be determined by simple randomization. Pregnant women in the treatment group will be asked to fix a hazelnut-sized cotton ball to their navel with a Band-Aid regularly for five days before going to bed at night. Pregnant women in the control group will not be asked to make any life changes. Five days later, the nausea-vomiting levels of the pregnant women who applied and the pregnant women in the control group will be compared.
Perioperatively, patients experience an unnecessarily high level of side effects associated with their treatment. These side effects include nausea, severe pain, anxiety, and stress. Moreover, many patients develop postoperative delirium (POD) and neurocognitive dysfunctions, often resulting in long-term cognitive impairment, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. However, physicians, nurses and their institutions do not receive structured feedback regarding these aspects of each patient's well-being. They may therefore be unable to engage in the essential cause-and-effect learning necessary to evaluate and consecutively reduce such side effects. Effective guidelines conform prevention is the proven key to shielding our patients from adverse Outcomes.
