Further research is warranted to optimize PONV prophylaxis in cardiac surgery patients.
2
We investigated the incidences of PONV, the frequency of using the antiemetics.
3
However it is not clear whether continuous epidural administration of doroperidol prevent PONV.
4
Conclusions: The results suggest that epidural droperidol effectively decreases PONV in high risk patients.
5
All episodes of postoperative PONV during the first 24 h after surgery were evaluated.
1
Background: Anesthesia methods and drugs affect postoperativenauseaandvomiting.
2
Conclusion: The combination of palonosetron-dexamethasone is superior to ondansetron-dexamethasone for the prevention of postoperativenauseaandvomiting after middle ear surgeries.
3
Conclusion: Preoperative dexamethasone reduces postoperativenauseaandvomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, with no side-effects, and may be recommended for routine use.
4
Study objective: To compare the incidence of postoperativenauseaandvomiting (PONV) during perioperative administration of 5% dextrose and normal saline in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
5
The incidence of postoperativenauseaandvomiting was 60-80% in middle ear surgeries in the absence of antiemetic prophylaxis.
6
All agents resulted in significantly fewer patients with postoperativenauseaandvomiting versus placebo in a NMA including 125 RCTs and 16,667 patients.
7
Background: Postoperativenauseaandvomiting is the second most common complaint in the postoperative period after pain.
