Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

The purpose of this study is to explore the dose response of SyB D-0701 for preventing nausea and emesis associated with radiotherapy (fractionated/localized irradiation) in cancer patients scheduled to receive radiotherapy (fractionated/localized irradiation) alone.

The primary aim of this project is to determine whether postoperative patients may benefit from the Efficacy Safety Score (ESS) as a tool for postoperative clinical decision support, with a special focus on the first 24 hours after discharge from the postoperative care unit.

The purpose of this phase 2 study is to assess the efficacy and patient satisfaction of oral rolapitant plus ondansetron vs. oral ondansetron monotherapy in malignant glioma (MG) patients receiving standard of care radiation (RT) and temozolomide (TMZ) therapy. This is a randomized phase 2 trial of rolapitant plus ondansetron vs. ondansetron monotherapy for the prevention of chemo-radiation induced nausea and vomiting in primary MG subjects receiving RT and concomitant multi-dose TMZ.

Antiemetic therapies have improved in recent years, but chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) are still common and are among the most distressing side effects of chemotherapy. Aprepitant is commercially available in Canada as capsules. An oral liquid aprepitant formulation would be ideal for oral administration to patients unable to swallow capsules.

This study compared the effects of prophylactic intravenous (IV) infusion of ondansetron and granisetron before the spinal anesthesia on hemodynamic parameters in patients undergoing elective cesarean section.

This study is carried out to evaluate and compare the efficiency of acupressure practice applied with pressure or sea-band and their placebo on managing the acute nausea-vomiting symptoms developing due to chemotherapy in pediatric oncology patients.

As PONV is an unpleasant experience that badly affects the patients' quality of life after surgery and the anti-emetic effects of propofol have been seldomly studied in Pakistan, this study aims at investigation of the beneficial effects of propofol in reducing the occurrence of PONV.

RATIONALE: Acupressure wristbands may prevent or reduce nausea and caused by chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether standard care is more effective with or without acupressure wristbands in controlling acute and delayed nausea. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well acupressure wristbands work with or without standard care in controlling nausea in young patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of intraoperative P6 acupuncture plus standard therapy on postoperative nausea and vomiting in pediatric patients undergoing tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy. 200 children will be randomly assigned to either the treatment or the control group. Treatment Group: Standard anti-emetic therapy plus bilateral P6 acupuncture after the induction of anesthesia Control Group: Standard anti-emetic therapy only This study will monitor nausea, retching, and vomiting events both directly after the surgery as well as the next day via a follow-up phone call to the parents of the study participant.

There will be two groups in this study: one group will be given the standard infusion of naloxone, a drug which helps reduce side effects from opioids needed after surgery, and the other group will receive a higher dose. The trial is designed to determine if a higher dose of naloxone infusion will reduce side effects from opioid therapy in patients who have undergone spine fusion for scoliosis.
