Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

The purpose of this research is to compare two drugs that are routinely used as standard of care for treating nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. This study aims to see if the drug olanzapine is as good as the steroid drug dexamethasone for preventing nausea and vomiting after chemotherapy. Both drugs are listed as appropriate treatment options in the most recent version of National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines on Antiemesis.

Post-operative nausea and vomiting are a leading cause of recovery room delays and low patient satisfaction. Complications such as suture line tension, wound hemorrhage and dehiscence, elevated intracranial pressure, pulmonary aspiration, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalance have been linked to nausea and vomiting. Many studies were done to explore the effects of propofol and dexmedetomidine on the incidence of post operative nausea and vomiting (PONV). In this study, we will compare propofol infusion to dexmedetomidine infusion on the incidence of PONV in patients undergoing ureteroscopic procedures under spinal anesthesia in the age group from 18 to 60 years with more than one risk factor for PONV (female, history of PONV, non-smoking).

Nausea and vomiting are serious problems in patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation. It is stated that the incidence of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting is more than 50%, even if the patient has been given antiemetic prophylaxis during the treatment process. Breathing is the easiest relaxation exercise applied during the flow in everyday life and also one of the most important and essential parts of other relaxation exercise. The handbooks prepared for the patients undergoing chemotherapy recommend deep breathing exercises in order to prevent their nausea and vomiting. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of respiratory exercise on chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Research Hypotheses Ho: Respiratory exercise is not effective in preventing chemotherapy-associated nausea and vomiting in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients. H1: Respiratory exercise is effective in preventing chemotherapy-associated nausea and vomiting in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients. In the literature, no study has been found investigating the effect of breathing exercises on chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of respiratory exercise on chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of ketamine or magnesium sulphate soaked throat pack on the incidence and severity of post operative sore throat as a primary outcome, post operative nausea and vomiting as a secondary outcome following elective nasal surgery under general anesthesia.

Mirtazapine is a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant. Its antagonist at the 5HT3 receptor may help to prevent nausea and vomiting. The use of mirtazapine in the management of nausea and vomiting has been reported in the literature, both for treatment and premedication. Dexamethasone, possesses analgesic, anti-inflammatory, immune-modulating, and antiemetic effects. Dexamethasone was reported to be effective in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients receiving cancer chemotherapy. It has also been shown to be effective in reducing nausea and vomiting after open and laparoscopic surgical procedures. In this randomized controlled trial, we will compare the effectiveness of both drugs in preventing PONV in laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery.

Chemotherapy is a cancer therapy performed on advanced cancer with quite good success, but this therapy has quite a lot of side effects. Chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting or commonly known as CINV, is a condition of nausea and vomiting experienced by cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, with a prevalence of around 80% of all patients undergoing chemotherapy, and 40% has the potential to become severe. This study aims to determine the efficacy of a new acupuncture modality, namely the press needle, in preventing CINV symptoms in pediatric patients with cancer undergoing chemotherapy. The study was conducted using a randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT) design in 64 pediatric cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy who were randomized into 2 groups, namely: (1) standard medical therapy as the control group; and (2) a combination of standard therapy with press needle acupuncture as the treatment group. The ear acupuncture points used are Shenmen and Stomach, and one body acupuncture point is PC6. Outcome measurements were carried out in the form of the RINVR questionnaire to assess the intensity of nausea and vomiting measured at 4 times: (1) 3 days before chemotherapy; (2) days of chemotherapy; (3) 12 hours after chemotherapy; (4) 3 days after chemotherapy.

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 study aims to explore the prevention of delayed chemotherapy induced by CAPOX regimen with granisetron transdermal patch。

As a result of the literature review, it has been seen that it has not yet been clarified whether cold application methods are effective on postoperative nausea and vomiting, and academic studies on this subject are needed. The aim of the planned study was to conduct a randomized controlled experimental study to evaluate the effect of the cold application method on nausea and vomiting and the need for antiemetic drugs in the early postoperative period. The research hypotheses are as follows: H1:Cold application method reduces nausea and vomiting in the early postoperative period. H1:The cold application method reduces the need for antiemetic drugs in the early postoperative period. H1:Cold application method in the early postoperative period increases patient satisfaction. Condition or disease: Postoperative nausea and vomiting,Postoperative antiemetic use status,Patient satisfaction,Effects of cold application method Intervention/treatment: There is an intervention group in which the cold application method is applied.

The phase 3 study is to compare the efficacy and safety of palonosetron, a long-acting 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, by buccal film delivery compared to IV injection for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. Subjects receive a single dose of palonosetron prior to moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.
