Active clinical trials for "Nausea"

We randomized patients who received laparoscopic surgery for benign gynecologic disease into double dose (Experimental Group) or single dose (Control Group) of antiemetics. We compared the degree of postoperative nausea and vomiting in experimental and control groups.

The investigators want to test if it is indicated to associate dexamethasone and ondansetron in obese patients having bariatric surgery under total intra-venous closed-loop anesthesia.

For breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy regimens, the use of a validated emesis (nausea and vomiting) risk calculator will provide superior anti-emetic (nausea and vomiting) control compared with "standard" anti-emetic regimen. The risk calculator has the potential to provide more individualized anti-emetic regimen by decreasing the use of toxic/costly anti-emetics in patients at low risk and possibly more importantly enhancing the appropriate anti-emetic regimen in patients at high risk.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pharyngeal packs can reduce nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery.

In this study, the investigators hypothesize that preemptive scalp block in neurosurgical patients may decrease incidence of PONV after craniotomy through decreasing intraoperative inhalational agents' concentration and decreasing intraoperative opioids requirements, with better intraoperative hemodynamics and lesser recovery time

The purpose of this prospective, blinded, randomized clinical trial is to investigate whether a ventilator-piloted PRM at the end of laparoscopic bariatric surgery could reduce overall postoperative pain and nausea.

To compare postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and perioperative outcomes of gynecologic patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery after scheduled administration of intravenous Ramosetron during hospital stays. Randomized controlled arm : Placebo versus Ramosetron injection Administration schedule : immediate postoperative status, 12 hrs after surgery, 36hrs after surgery

We hypothesize that the combination of aprepitant with dexamethasone will provide significantly improved prophylaxis against Postoperative nausea and vomiting compared with the combination of ondansetron and dexamethasone, in patients undergoing craniotomy under general anesthesia.

A total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is a useful anesthetic technique that reduces the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Investigator hypothesized the incidence of PONV can be further reduced when palonosetron is added to TIVA.

The study will test aprepitant for the prevention of CINV in patients receiving their initial cycle of Moderately Emetogenic Chemotherapy (MEC). Patients receiving more then one cycle of chemotherapy may opt to participate in an optional second cycle during which the patient will receive the same antiemetic regimen as cycle 1, except that an IV formulation of aprepitant will be given in place of the oral formulation on study day one. Study drug administration on subsequent days will be given orally as in cycle 1.
