Palonosetron vs Combination of Granisetron and Dexamethasone in Preventing PONV in Laparoscopic...

Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

This is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded study comparing the post-operative nausea vomiting (PONV) profile following administration of intraoperative palonosetron alone and the combination of granisetron and dexamethasone in moderate to high-risk patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Patients aged 18-65 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I or II were randomized into two groups. Group A received 1 ml of intravenous (IV) 0.9% saline after intubation and IV palonosetron 0.075 mg at the end of operation. Group B received IV dexamethasone 4 mg after intubation and IV granisetron 1 mg at the end of surgery. The occurrence of PONV and the need for rescue antiemetics were assessed at 30 minutes, 4, 24 and 48 hours post-anesthesia. A complete response towards the study drugs was considered when patients did not experience PONV and did not require rescue antiemetics. The side effects of the study drugs were evaluated. Patient satisfaction with the anti-emetics administered was assessed. These parameters were compared between Group A and Group B: the occurrence of PONV, the need of rescue antiemetics, the side effects of the study drugs and patient satisfaction with the anti-emetics administered.

Effectiveness of Triple Therapy With Palonosetron for PON Prophylaxis

Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a displeasing experience that distresses surgical patients during the first 24 hours after a surgical procedure. The incidence of postoperative nausea occurs in about 50%, the incidence of postoperative vomiting is about 30%, and in high-risk patients, the PONV rate could be as high as 80%. Therefore, the study design of this single arm, non-randomized, pilot study assessed the efficacy and safety profile of a triple therapy combination with palonosetron, dexamethasone and promethazine to prevent PONV in patients undergoing craniotomies under general anesthesia.
