Active clinical trials for "Nausea"

It is reported that approximately 17.5 million people die worldwide each year due to cardiovascular diseases, including ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and rheumatic heart disease. The most preferred method in the treatment of coronary artery disease is Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery. This procedure routinely requires general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation. Patients due to these practices often experience nausea-vomiting and thirst after extubation. It is stated that menthol application, which is a low cost, easy to apply and safe method, can be effective in the management of these complications. As a result of the literature review, there is no study evaluating the effectiveness of the menthol lozenge in quenching thirst after extubation and in the management of nausea and vomiting. In this study, it is aimed to develop methods that accelerate the postoperative recovery by proving the effect of oral menthol lozenge intake after extubation on thirst, nausea-vomiting, physiological parameters and comfort level in patients undergoing CABG surgery. The universe of this randomized controlled study was planned by Dr. Siyami Ersek Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Training and Research Hospital will create patients who underwent CABG surgery. His sample, on the same dates, was Dr. Siyami Ersek Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Training and Research Hospital will create a total of 118 patients hospitalized in the Cardiovascular Surgery (Postoperative) Intensive Care Unit and undergoing CABG surgery that meet the inclusion criteria. Participants will be divided into two equal groups as intervention (n = 59) and control (n = 59) groups. Patient Information Form, Intraoperative Patient Evaluation Form, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for evaluation of thirst and nausea-vomiting, Physiological Parameter Control Form, Analgesic-Antiemetic Use Control Form, General Comfort Scale Short Form will be used for data collection. The intervention group will be given a lozenge containing menthol orally at the 30th, 60th and 90th minutes after extubation. Thirst, nausea-vomiting, physiological parameters, analgesic and antiemetic consumption and comfort levels of all patients will be evaluated. The data obtained from the study will be analyzed with appropriate statistical methods using the SPSS for Windows 22.0 program (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of inhaled aromatherapy on symptoms of nausea/vomiting and anxiety in patients who have received a stem cell transplant. Aromatherapy involves essential oils from aromatic plants that can be absorbed into the body in different ways. Our study will be using inhaled aromatherapy, which has been found helpful for symptoms such as nausea/vomiting and anxiety.

We hypothesized that better control of postoperative pain treatment and its side effects by monitoring ESS might influence the degree of mobility and morbidity in surgical patients and consequently reduce LOS. Thus, our aim was to validate the influence of recording ESS and the application of a "call-out algorithm" on LOS in two university hospitals in which the routine policy of registration of pain had not been adopted yet.

This randomized phase III trial studies antiemetic therapy with olanzapine to see how well they work compared to antiemetic therapy alone in preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients with cancer receiving highly emetogenic (causes vomiting) chemotherapy. Antiemetic drugs, such as palonosetron hydrochloride, ondansetron, and granisetron hydrochloride, may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients treated with chemotherapy. Olanzapine may help prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting by blocking brain receptors that appear to be involved in nausea and vomiting.

Randomized controlled trial comparing inhalation of isopropyl alcohol vs placebo (normal saline) pads to treat nausea in emergency department patients.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of postoperative systemic rapid onset and short acting dexamethasone followed by a tapering dose of oral prednisolone on post-tonsillectomy morbidities. Half of the patients who comply with the inclusion criteria were selected to receive a single postoperative dose of intravenous dexamethasone followed by oral steroids; the second group received placebo.

This pilot clinical trial is studying how well aprepitant works in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy for pancreatic cancer. Antiemetic drugs, such as aprepitant may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy

This clinical trial studies fosaprepitant dimeglumine in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients with gastrointestinal cancer receiving combination chemotherapy. Antiemetic drugs, such as fosaprepitant dimeglumine, may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients treated with chemotherapy.

The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effectiveness of 3 drug schedules in preventing chemotherapy-related nausea and/or vomiting in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

RATIONALE: Hypnosis may be effective in reducing pain and other side effects in women undergoing surgery for breast cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well hypnosis works in reducing pain and other side effects in women undergoing surgery for breast cancer.
