Dexamethasone and Postoperative Bleeding Following Tonsillectomy in Children

PainPostoperative2 more

Tonsillectomy is one of the most frequently performed surgical interventions in children. However, it is associated with a high incidence of PostOperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV), severe pain and haemorrhage. There is strong evidence on the efficacy of Dexamethasone in reducing the incidence of PONV and pain after tonsillectomy, which led to consider this drug as a first line treatment in routine anaesthesia practice in such surgical setting. However, in the last decade, there have been arguments about the potential role of Dexamethasone in increasing the risk of postoperative bleeding in children and studies addressing the haemorrhage risk following administration of Dexamethasone for tonsillectomy are inconclusive.Thus, this study is aimed at providing evidence for the safety profile of Dexamethasone with regard to the risk of post-tonsillectomy bleeding in children when administered as a single intraoperative dose.

The Effect of Ginger and Peppermint on Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in Patients After Thyroid...

Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

The study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of inhalation use of ginger and peppermint on postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing thyroidectomy surgery. After the approval of the ethics committee and institutional permission, 81 patients who applied to the general surgery clinic for thyroidectomy between 1 December 2020 and 1 December 2021 and met the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. Within the scope of the planned study, the sample size in the light of the reported academic studies was determined as effect size d = 0.40 (effect size), α = 0.05 (margin of error), 1-β = 0.90 (Power) and by using the G-power package program with the specified criteria. It was decided to recruit 81 people (27 people per 3 group). Block randomization method will be used to determine the experimental and control groups. In order for the groups to be distributed homogeneously, the order produced by a computer program (https://www.randomizer.org/) will be used. Randomization will be done by a biostatistician outside the researcher. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will be assigned to the experimental and control groups according to the randomization list. Before the operation, the patient will be visited and information will be given about the purpose, content and intervention to be applied. After obtaining verbal and written permission from the patients who accepted to participate in the study, the "Informed Consent" will be filled in the "Patient Identification form. On the day of surgery, "surgical intervention information will be filled in by the researcher. In the postoperative period at the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 12th and 24th hours, the patient will use ginger and peppermint oil as inhalation. At the end of the 24th hour, the application will be terminated. In the control group, no application will be made during and after the surgical intervention, and routine treatment and care will be applied. After admission to the clinic of the patients in the experimental and control groups, the severity of pain, nausea and vomiting, the number of nausea-vomiting at the 2nd, 6th, 12th and 24th hours, the name, dose, frequency and time of the antiemetic drugs used were determined by the researcher. At the end of the 24th hour, Rhodes Nausea Vomiting Index score will be evaluated by the researcher.

P6 Acupressure Before Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

Post Operative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) Rescue Outcomes After Amisulpride Treatment

Nausea and VomitingPostoperative

PROMPT (PONV Rescue Outcomes after AMisulPride Treatment) is an observational Phase IV study designed to evaluate real-world evidence in relation to the care continuum of Post Operative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV), as well as the effectiveness and safety of common pharmacologic rescue treatment regimens compared to IV amisulpride. There will be no predefined hypothesis regarding the magnitude of efficacy or safety of various treatment regimens from the cohorts observed. We are not proposing to directly recruit patients into this study.

Why in Hospital After VATS Lobectomy

CarcinomaNon-Small-Cell Lung6 more

The study aims to identify specific or potential reasons that prolong the length of hospital stay after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy. The hypothesis is that patients who are still in hospital after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy are associated with prolonged air leak, infection, pneumonia, atrial fibrillation or other complications or social factors.

Genetic Polymorphism and Post Operative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV)

Genetic Predisposition to DiseasePostoperative Nausea2 more

Nausea and vomiting affects 25-30% of individuals in the post-operative period and can reach more than 70-80% in high-risk patients. inherited factors may play a significant role in individual susceptibility and clinical research on hereditary factors involved in the pathogenesis of Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and chemotherapy nausea and vomiting (CINV) is relatively new. The aim of this study is to investigate whether inter-individual differences related to PONV are associated with genetic factors. 300 patients will be evaluated in postoperative oncological surgeries. The peripheral leukocyte DNA will be extracted by the Salting Out Procedure method and processed to genotyping for 48 SNPs from 15 candidate genes by real-time PCR by the Taqman method. The possible associations with demographic data and factors related to surgery will be analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis.

Development of a Predictive Model for Post-Discharge Nausea and Vomiting (PDNV)

NauseaPostoperative Nausea and Vomiting2 more

The primary purpose of this prospective cohort study is to develop a simplified risk model for post-discharge nausea and vomiting (PDNV) in adult same-day surgery patients in the US that will allow clinicians to identify those patients who would benefit from prophylactic antiemetic strategies.

Quality of Recovery Under Low or Standard Pneumoperitoneum Pressure

Quality of RecoveryPostoperative Pain2 more

The use of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum seems to be able to reduce complications such as postoperative pain. However, the quality of evidence for most studies evaluating this relationship is considered low. The absence of concealment of pneumoperitoneum pressure and the lack of description of neuromuscular blockade characteristics are the main causes of bias. The purpose of this study will be to evaluate by means of a prospective, randomized and double-blinded trial, the quality of recovery (QoR-15) questionnaire of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under moderate neuromuscular blockade, using low pneumoperitoneum pressure or "standard" pressure. Eighty patients submitted to laparoscopic cholecystectomy and randomly distributed in two groups will be included: low pneumoperitoneum pressure (10 mmHg) or "standard" pressure (14 mmHg). The value of abdominal pressure will be kept hidden for all participants, except for the nurse responsible for the operating room. Moderate neuromuscular blockade will be maintained according to Train-of-four count (TOFc) = 3 for all cases.
