Active clinical trials for "Nausea"

To investigate whether nonthermal low level laser acupuncture has beneficial effects on nausea and vomiting in children receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy for a malignant solid tumor. In a previous crossover study comparing needle acupuncture to no intervention in an otherwise similar setting we found beneficial effects, but this trial was not even single-blinded and therefore the results are questionable. The hypothesis is that active laser acupuncture is more effective than placebo laser acupuncture concerning episodes of retching/vomiting (primary outcome measure) and rescue antiemetic medication (secondary outcome measure) with a fix standard antiemetic medication

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.

Prospective, observational study evaluating the effect of olanzapine for the treatment of refractory chronic nausea and vomiting.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether the oral administration of a high caloric drink with protein decreases the postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients with dysgnathia.

The prevalence of nausea and vomiting after the administration of non-ionic contrast media has rarely been assessed. Thus, the aim of our study is to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of nausea and vomiting after the exposure to the non-ionic contrast media for computed tomography examinations in adults.

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.

Observation on acupoint electric stimulation combined with tropisetron in preventing and treating nausea and vomiting and improving the patient's appetite after TACE for primary or metastatic liver cancer patients.

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.

Investigators will observe the incidence of post-cesarean nausea or vomiting and try to associate it with some risk factors.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the various parameters involved in the occurrence of nausea / vomiting during the first cycle of chemotherapy for solid tumors or hematologic among a group of chemotherapy-naive patients, despite anti standardized-emetics protocols.
