Preoperative Oral Carbohydrate for Nausea and Vomiting Prevention During Cesarian Section
Postoperative Nausea and VomitingPost-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in women undergoing subarachnoid anesthesia for Caesarean section is an important clinical problem. The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of oral carbohydrate loading to standard pre-operative fasting in patients undergoing elective cesarean section on the incidence and severity of PONV and biochemical parameters indicating ketosis.

Nausea and Vomiting in Children Receiving Chemotherapeautic Monotherapy
Acute LeukemiaChemotherapy induced nausea is a common side effect for children undergoing chemotherapy. Furthermore, chemotherapy-induced vomiting is a major factor limiting quality of life during treatment reported by paediatric cancer survivors. Complete prevention of both nausea and vomiting is the goal of anti-vomiting and nausea medications. It is important to understand whether or not certain chemotherapeutic treatments are more or less likely to cause these symptoms. Acute leukemia is the most common cancer diagnosed in children. Intrathecal methotrexate is an important part of chemotherapy for the prevention and treatment of central nervous system leukemia over the 2.5 to 3.5 years of the treatment program for leukemia. The likelihood that intrathecal methotrexate administered as monotherapy will cause nausea and vomiting has not yet been described in children. Knowledge of the likelihood that intrathecal methotrexate will cause nausea and vomiting will therefore be important to optimize treatment for these side-effects of chemotherapy. The primary aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the potential of intrathecal methotrexate to cause nausea and vomiting in paediatric cancer patients.

Postoperative Nausea and VomitingThis study was designed to compare the effects of gabapentin and ramosetron on PONV in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery.
Effect of Ramosetron on Bowel Motility After Gynecological Surgery
Postoperative Nausea and VomitingRamosetron is effective in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting. Several studies reported that ramosetron is also effective treatment of irritable bowel syndrome. The investigators examine the effect of ramosetron on postoperative bowel motility.
Observational Study on the Use of Akynzeo® in Patients Receiving HEC
Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and VomitingThis Canadian, multi-centre, prospective, observational real-world study is designed to collect patient-reported outcome data on the use of Akynzeo® (netupitant/palonosetron) for the prevention of nausea and vomiting in oncology patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC).
Dexmedetomidine Combined With Lidocaine Infusion Affect PONV
LidocaineDexmedetomidine2 moreBACKGROUND: Few researches have manifested that intravenous (IV) lidocaine or dexmedetomidine decreased the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). The investigators investigated whether IV lidocaine plus dexmedetomidine infusion could better reduce the incidence of PONV after laparoscopic hysterectomy. METHODS: Two hundred and forty women with elective laparoscopic hysterectomy were randomly divided into four groups: the control group (group C, n=60) received an equal volume of saline, the lidocaine group (group L, n=60) received IV lidocaine (bolus infusion of 1.5 mg/kg over 10 min, 1.5 mg/kg/h continuous infusion), the dexmedetomidine group (group D, n=60) received dexmedetomidine administration (bolus infusion of 0.5 µg/kg over 10 min, 0.4 µg/kg/h continuous infusion), the lidocaine plus dexmedetomidine group (group LD, n=60) received combination of lidocaine (bolus infusion of 1.5 mg/kg over 10 min, 1.5 mg/kg/h continuous infusion) and dexmedetomidine administration (bolus infusion of 0.5 µg/kg over 10 min, 0.4 µg/kg/h continuous infusion). Primary outcome was the incidence of the first 48 h nausea, vomiting and PONV after surgery. The secondary outcomes included perioperative propofol and remifentanil consumption, postoperative fentanyl requirement, Ramsay sedation score, and bradycardia during post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) stay.
Metoclopramide-Ondansetron vs. Metoclopramide Therapy for Treatment of Nausea and Vomiting Post...
Postoperative Nausea and VomitingThe incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after general anesthesia is up to 30% when inhalational anesthetics are used with no prophylaxis. This makes PONV one of the most common complaints following surgery under general anesthesia, together with postoperative pain.
