Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare medications in women having a cesarean delivery. The main question it aims to answer are: • Which medication is better to use as a first-line prevention agent for nausea and vomiting Participants will rate their nausea, pain and other symptoms after surgery Researchers will compare two drugs, ondansetron and dexamethasone to see if the side effects of pain medications are improved after cesarean.
The study was conducted as an experimental study to determine the effect of menthol chewing gum application on postoperative nausea, vomiting and hospital stay in children with appendectomy. The population of the study consisted of children aged 7-18 who underwent appendectomy in Bursa Yüksek İhtisas Training and Research Hospital Pediatric Surgery clinic between April and June 2022. In the sample of the study, a total of 60 children (menthol gum group- intervention group=30, control=30) who had postoperative nausea-vomiting, accepted to participate in the study and met the sample selection criteria were included. Starting from the second hour after the child was brought to the clinic after appendectomy, the children in the chewing gum group with nausea and vomiting were chewed gum for an average of 15 minutes. The patients in the study group were not intervened except for routine nursing care. During the chewing gum (between 5-10. minutes), up to 30., 60. and 120. Minutes after the chewing gum.The patient was re-evaluated in terms of nausea with the BARF nausea scale. Episodes of vomiting were recorded in patients with vomiting. After the quantitative stages of the study were completed, the patient's level of relief was evaluated using a verbal descriptive scale. Nausea and vomiting were also evaluated before the patient was discharged.
To examine if perioperative pain/nausea/pruritus is altered when current standard analgesia for caesarian section (CS) is replaced with new guideline recommended analgesia.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common complication in the paediatric population and is a source of significant morbidity. The incidence of PONV in children is alarmingly high, as it is estimated to be between 33.2% to 82% depending on patient risk factors. Even with the administration of prophylactic antiemetic medications, the risk of PONV can still be approximately 30%. Various independent risk factors have been implicated in the development of paediatric PONV. The following risk factors were identified: a duration of surgery 30 minutes or longer, age 3 years or older, strabismus, adenoidectomy, and tonsillectomy surgeries, a history of PONV in the child or immediate relatives (parents or siblings), use of volatile anaesthetic, use of opioids, increased postoperative pain, prolonged preoperative fast, and state of dehydration Significant improvement in patient satisfaction can be achieved if the incidence of PONV is decreased. Although not usually life-threatening, PONV may lead to complications commonly associated with vomiting, including dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and aspiration of gastric contents. In some surgical cases, PONV has also led to wound complications, oesophageal rupture, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumomediastinum, and bilateral pneumothorax. PONV typically describes nausea, vomiting, or retching that can occur starting in the post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) and continuing through the 24 hours following surgery. PONV occurs twice as often in children than in adults and can lead to longer PACU stays, delays in hospital discharge and subsequent unplanned readmissions, which ultimately lead to significant financial burden on the patients. A variety of antiemetic regimens are recommended for the prevention and treatment of PONV in children, including pharmacotherapy with dexamethasone, 5HT-3 receptor antagonists, butyrophenones, prokinetics, anticholinergics and antihistamines. Hydration is yet another important factor in the development of PONV in paediatric patients. Administration of intravenous dextrose-containing solutions may also prevent PONV. Investigation of the effect of perioperative intravenous crystalloid administration on PONV was initially motivated by the results of observational studies suggesting that perioperative volume status influenced postoperative complication rates. This work showed that PONV was among the most prevalent events after surgery and motivated subsequent inquiry into the relationship between perioperative volume resuscitation and PONV . Multiple reviews have explained the complex physiology of nausea and vomiting. Briefly, the vomiting centre, located in the lateral reticular formation of the medulla, co-ordinates efferent activity to the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and abdominal musculature to produce vomiting. This centre receives afferent stimuli from a variety of sites: the pharynx, gastrointestinal tract chemo- and stretch receptors, the brain (including vestibular information from cranial nerve VIII), aortic baroreceptors, and the chemoreceptor trigger zone. The chemoreceptor trigger zone is a neural centre physiologically outside of the blood-brain barrier, which provides afferent information to the vomiting centre in response to noxious stimuli in the blood. Patients particularly paediatrics typically present for surgery with a fluid deficit secondary to fasting, bleeding, bowel preparation, and other causes of dehydration. It has been proposed that brainstem, vestibular, and intestinal hypoperfusion, with concomitant ischaemia, may mediate nausea and vomiting. Supplemental intravenous crystalloids could serve to mitigate this effect; however, no proven explanation for the putative role of volume status in this model exists. Hypovolemia has been associated with a rise in postoperative morbidity and mortality ranging from PONV to other complications such as organ dysfunction . Hypovolemia from overnight fasting without adequate fluid replacement can cause adverse effects postoperatively . Intravenous crystalloids are widely administered before, during, and after procedures requiring general anaesthesia. They are inexpensive and have relatively few adverse effects. A prior systematic review has suggested that supplemental intravenous crystalloids may be effective in preventing PONV . However, studies of supplemental perioperative intravenous crystalloids were noted to vary widely on the specific volumes administered. Despite evidence-based, multimodal prophylactic regimens, PONV remains a prevalent clinical problem . The use of pharmacologic agents alone reduces the risk of PONV but increases the risk of side effects. Intravenous crystalloids are an attractive treatment modality. Many different intravenous fluid interventions have been tested in a wide variety of surgical and anaesthetic contexts.
In this study, it was aimed to compare the use of sugammadex instead of neostigmine + atropine in the reversal of NMB in children undergoing lower abdominal surgery or urogenital surgery, and to compare the rates of postoperative agitation, nausea and vomiting using the FLACC scale, PAED scale and ICC parameters.After the approval of the local ethics committee and written consent from the family, patients who underwent ASA 1, 5-12 years old lower abdomen surgery or urogenital surgery in Pendik Training and Research Hospital will be included in the study. The patients included in the study will be those who were maintained with routine 2-3% sevoflurane inhalation anesthetic and 0.2mcg/kg/min remifentanil intravenous anesthetic, and decurarized with 0.5-1 mg/kg rocuronium. No drugs other than those administered by the responsible Anesthesiologist during the operation will be administered. The patients included in the study will be divided into 2 groups according to the agent used in decurarization. There is no condition for the number of patients in the group to be equal. Group N; neostigmine+atropine, GROUP S; This will be the group of patients decurarized with sugammadex. 0-45 days after patients are extubated. And at the 2nd hour, FLACC Scale (Pain Diagnostic Scale), PAED (Pediatric Anesthesia Recovery Delirium) Scale assessment methods will be compared in terms of pain and agitation. Nausea and vomiting will be noted as yes/no.
The study is to evaluate the antiemetic effect of adding fosaprepitant to biplet regimen of tropisetron and dexamethasone for patients with cervical cancer or nasopharyngeal cancer treated with radiotherapy and concomitant weekly cisplatin chemotherapy in a south Chinese cohort.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating DPI-386 Nasal Gel versus placebo. Approximately 500 subjects will be randomized 1:1 (250 DPI 386 Nasal Gel/250 matching Placebo Nasal Gel) are planned to be enrolled.
Auricular acupressure is easily accessible and easily performed, and can significantly relieve PONV symptoms, and improve patient's satisfaction in women receiving general anesthesia for gynecological surgeries. This makes it an economically-beneficial supplemental therapy, worthy of promoting for patients receiving general anesthesia.
To explore the effect of commonly used antiemetic drugs on reducing nausea and vomiting caused by intravenous tramadol injection, so as to reduce the incidence of nausea and vomiting in clinical use of tramadol and provide guidance for the clinical use of tramadol injection
Today, surgical applications are used to solve many health problems. In order for the surgical intervention to take place, anesthesia applications are often required. Complications such as sore throat, thirst and nausea and vomiting may occur as a result of trauma, local irritation and inflammation of the airway mucosa during anesthesia and tracheal intubation. These complications are in the postoperative period; It may cause delayed oral fluid intake, prolonged dehydration, oral odour, and increased risk of aspiration, hematoma and wound dehiscence due to retching and vomiting, all of which may lead to delayed discharge and increased cost. Aromatherapy, one of the non-pharmacological applications, is frequently applied in reducing postoperative complications and its effectiveness is stated. In this study, the aromatic solution applied after the surgery; It was planned to examine the effect on sore throat, thirst, nausea-vomiting. In addition, the multimodal synergistic effect of lavender oil and ginger oil used in the aromatic solution to be prepared will be utilized. As a result of this study, the effectiveness of the aromatic solution application to be applied to the patients in the postoperative period and the benefits and benefits of the patient's recovery process will be determined. Thus, effective application can be made for the entire postoperative period. It is thought that this study to be conducted will be a guide for future studies on the patient group.
