Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Dual therapy

Monotherapy

Arm Description

Patients will receive 10 mg metoclopramide with 4mg ondansetron before induction of general anesthesia

Patients will receive 10 mg metoclopramide before induction of general anesthesia.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

postoperative nausea and vomiting
The Primary aim of this study is to compare the effect of prophylactic combination therapy (dual therapy) metoclopramide-ondansetron vs. ondansetron monotherapy for the treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This will be assessed through a questionnaire with yes or no question where yes indicates the presence of nausea or vomiting and no indicating the absence of nausea or vomiting.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Surgeon satisfaction
Assess surgeon satisfaction with anesthesia using a questionnaire named "the Surgeon Satisfaction with Anesthesia Services Scales". The questionnaire uses a scale: 1-strongly disagree, 2- disagree, 3- agree, 4- strongly agree
Patient satisfaction
Assess patient satisfaction with anesthesia using the Iowa Satisfaction Anesthesia scale which measures patient satisfaction through a scale: strongly disagree, disagree, undecided, agree and strongly agree

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after general anesthesia is up to 30% when inhalational anesthetics are used with no prophylaxis. This makes PONV one of the most common complaints following surgery under general anesthesia, together with postoperative pain.
Detailed Description
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind controlled clinical trial. Written informed consent will be obtained from patients. Patients will be randomly assigned using the sealed envelope technique into 2 equal groups: Group 1: Patients will receive 10 mg metoclopramide with 4mg ondansetron before induction of general anesthesia. Group 2: Patients will receive 10 mg metoclopramide before induction of general anesthesia.
