Filter by:The purpose of the Study is to test a higher dose of steroids(Dexamethasone) given just prior to surgery in the setting of Fast-Track Kneesurgery with Arthroplasty and the effect on postoperative pain and postoperative inflammation.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting ( PONV ) is one of the common complications after general anesthesia while genetic factors may play an important role in Postoperative nausea and vomiting. In this study, the investigators investigated the relationship between gene polymorphism ( such as single nucleotide polymorphism ) of the gene HTR3A ( 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 3A ), HTR3B ( 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 3B ), HTR3C ( 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 3C ) and TACR1 ( tachykinin receptor 1 ) etc. with nausea and vomiting after general anesthesia. Simultaneously, the investigators explored the influencing factors of nausea and vomiting.
A common problem following sleeve gastrectomy surgery is called postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). This problem is uncomfortable for patients, and can also lead to other complications, including pneumonia. It is unclear what exactly causes this problem, but it may be partly caused by slow emptying of the stomach. The current treatments for PONV include medications, but these may only treat the symptoms. Botulinum toxin (BTX, brand name Botox®), produced naturally by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum and adapted for medical use, is an neurotransmitter inhibitor of the neuromuscular junction, and produces temporary muscular paralysis. BTX is widely used in cosmetic and other medical applications. Injecting BTX into the pylorus, which is the circular sphincter muscle at the end of the stomach, temporarily paralyzes the muscle, leaving it wide open, and allowing stomach contents to flow through. This effect lasts for several weeks, and then goes away. This may help prevent PONV.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common problem and may lead to catastrophic complications, especially in neurosurgical cases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dexamethasone and ondansetron for preventing PONV in patients who underwent microvascular decompression surgery (MVD).
This study is a clinical trial, prospective, randomized and double-blinded. Placebo, Gabapentin syrup at 15 mg/kg, and Gabapentin syrup at 30 mg/kg were administered to reduce agitation before and after in children submitted procedures (myelogram or lumbar puncture) among 1 and 6 years.
The purpose of this study is to study whether adding Aprepitant to Palonosetron and dexamethasone can further prevent the incidence and severity of nausea and vomiting caused by FOLFIRI or FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen among gastrointestinal malignancy patients with high risk factors of chemotherapy-associated adverse events.
The effectiveness of the analgesic and anti-nausea prevention techniques of the investigators justifies being evaluated regularly in order to adapt the management strategy to the specificities of each surgical act. A first evaluation took place in June 2016 and allowed to identify a category of patients (partial breast surgery with or without axillary gesture) not benefiting from an ideal algological management because justifying in 30% of the cases of a level 3 analgesic remedy in the postoperative recovery room. This use of morphine results in a significant incidence of postoperative nausea and prolonged recovery time before return home harmful to the patient. With their experience in locoregional anesthesia technique in complete breast surgery (total mastectomy) and aware of the effectiveness of this type of anesthesia on the management of immediate and chronic pain, the investigators have extended their indications of ALR to partial breast surgery in ambulatory.
We are conducting a randomized controlled trial the use of rib raising for post-operative ileus. Rib raising is an osteopathic manipulative technique (OMT). We will recruit all patients undergoing major abdominal surgery and once they have been enrolled, we will randomize them to receive daily rib raising or a control technique where we place hands on the back but do not apply any pressure. In preliminary studies, Rib raising has been shown to reduce post-operative ileus and hospital length of stay by up to 50%.
To determine the analgesic efficacy of CL-108 5 mg by comparison with placebo and the anti-emetic efficacy of CL-108 5 mg by comparison with hydrocodone 5 mg/acetaminophen 325 mg.
This Canadian, multi-centre, prospective, observational real-world study is designed to collect patient-reported outcome data on the use of Akynzeo® (netupitant/palonosetron) for the prevention of nausea and vomiting in oncology patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC).
