Poor control of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting has a major clinical and psychological impact in patients treated with chemotherapy. Metabolic, nutritional and mechanical complications, as well as psychological repercussions, complicate the therapeutic management of the patient and can lead to poor compliance, a deterioration in the general condition or even prolongation of hospitalizations and a delay in the implementation of chemotherapy cures. The control of induced chemo- and radio-induced nausea and vomiting rests above all on their prevention. At present and in most centers, the prevention of nausea and vomiting in the pediatric onco-hematology department of the CHU de Nice is based exclusively on drug treatments, according to a protocol established according to the emetogenic risk of the chemotherapy received. We propose a study evaluating the effectiveness of the stimulation of acupuncture points by low frequency laser therapy associated with antiemetics in the management of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting in patients of 2 to 20 years followed in the service of analgesics. pediatric onco-hematology.

Fentanyl is a commonly used drug for the prevention of emergence agitation and reduction in postoperative pain in children receiving tonsillectomy. However, fentanyl can cause postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), which is a main target side effect that medical staff strives to prevent. However, recent meta-analysis showed that the incidence of PONV may be different depending on the time of administration of fentanyl. However, the research design of patients enrolled in each study, such as the age, the name of the operation, and the method of anesthesia, is not identical. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fentanyl in patients undergoing tonsillectomy with a prospective randomized controlled trial. Secondary outcomes include incidence and severity of emergence agitation and anesthesia recovery time, postanesthesia care unit (PACU) time, side effects.
To the investigators knowledge there are no studies in the literature evaluating the effect of Dexamethasone administration on patients undergoing outpatient vaginal prolapse surgeries.
There are ca 1000 new cases of bladder cancer in Finland/year. The curative therapy for high risk bladder cancer is radical cystectomy. The golden standard is still an open surgery despite development of laparoscopic techniques. Epidural analgesia is considered as most effective for the treatment of postoperative pain. However, there is a need for other effective options, because epidural analgesia has some contraindications and risks for serious complications. Recently quadratus lumborum block has gained popularity in the treatment of postoperative pain after various surgeries in the area from hip to mamilla. It is more beneficial than other peripheral blocks, since it covers also the visceral nerves. Contrary to the need of epidural catether a single shot QLB has reported to last up to 48 hours. Inadequately treated acute postoperative pain is considered as one of the main risk factors for persistent postoperative pain. 44 patients aging 18-85 will be recruited based on a power calculation. The primary outcome measure is the acute postoperative need for rescue analgesics. Secondary outcomes are acute pain (NRS scale), nausea, vomiting, mobilisation and longterm outcomes such as quality of life and persistent pain.
The purpose as well as the aim of this project is to understand the effect of probiotics on gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction such as nausea, vomiting, and constipation that are found during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. The primary objective of this project is to uncover whether probiotics have an effect on GI functional disorders. The secondary objective is to identify the microbiota associated with probiotic intake. The tested hypothesis is that gut microbiota influences the GI functions and may influence constipation, nausea, and vomiting during pregnancy.
The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of three different regimens of prophylactic ondansetron on the incidence and severity of post-operative nausea and vomiting.
