Active clinical trials for "Nausea"

This study is a randomized, controlled, double-blinded, and parallel design study. A total 94 patients will be randomized to receive ketorolac or fentanyl based patient-controlled analgesia after microvascular decompression surgery.

As long as anesthesia is administered, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) will continue to be a frequent and upsetting comorbidity. Vomiting and nausea can significantly slow down recovery, raise staffing and drug expenses, and decrease patient satisfaction during perioperative procedures. Nausea it is a conscious recognition of subconscious excitation in area of medulla closely associated with or a part of the vomiting center, or it is sensation of discomfort at upper abdomen and unease sensation with involuntary order to vomit. While vomiting It is a mean by which the upper GIT rides of its contents when any part of upper GIT becomes irritated, over distended or over excitable. The PONV is the most feared postoperative symptoms & it may impaired dressing , surgical repairs & increased ( bleeding , pain , risk of gastric contents aspiration ) & if it is prolonged will leads to electrolytes , fluid imbalance & dehydration ; the PONV can occurs after up to 90 % of operative procedures ; The common risk factors of PONV are : young age , female gender, history of ( PONV , motion sickness ) , those not smokers , early mobilization after surgery , early drinking & eating after operations , procedures like (laparoscopic , gynecological , abdominal , ENT , squint ) , postoperative severe pain , narcotic premedication , possibly prolonged general anesthesia , gastric distention , stimulation of the pharynx , hypoxemia , hypotension , & dehydration. The PONV can reduced by: avoidance of triggers where possible, uses of anti-emetics drugs, techniques & procedures associated with low incidence of PONV (e.g. propofol) & give intravenous fluids; with prophylaxis the incidence is usually under 30% in high risk cases, the most effective approach for prevention of PONV is the use of multiple strategies & different drugs. The pregabalin (C8H17NO2), is a newer drug & recently introduced at 1990. as anticonvulsive medication. We evaluated the effect of oral pregabalin on postoperative nausea and vomiting in laparoscopic cholecystectomy cases.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy, safety and feasibility of intravenous Fosaprepitant and Ondansetron for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting in thoracicsurgery patients. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the Fosaprepitant and Ondansetron group.The groups were analyzed and compared for frequency of vomiting in 24 h after surgery. In addition, we will further compare the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications, length of hospital stay, nutrition and quality of life after surgery in patients treated with different antiemetic prophylaxis.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of Aprepitant + standard antiemetic regimen in reducing postoperative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic gastric sleeve versus placebo + standard antiemetic regimen

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, sleep quality and pain are the common symptoms experienced by children with cancer. These symptoms significantly devastate the children's quality of life. Hypnosis is found to be effective in managing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, sleep quality and pain in children with cancer. In addition, virtual reality is shown to promote the effectiveness of hypnosis in managing these symptoms. However, no study so far has examine it effectiveness in Hong Kong Chinese children with cancer. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness in the use a virtual reality device to improve chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, sleep quality and pain among children with cancer in Hong Kong.

The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of different regimens of prophylactic Ondansetron, Dexamethasone, or both, on the incidence and severity of post-operative nausea and vomiting.

The purpose of this study is to clarify whether or not a low-dose propofol infusion can effectively prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients who have a documented history of PONV and/or motion sickness.

This pilot study seeks to understand how changes in the bacteria composition (microbiome) of the gut may be associated with the occurrence of chemotherapy-induced nausea (CIN) in women undergoing chemotherapy for stage I-III breast cancer. Patients undergoing chemotherapy may experience nausea as a result of their treatment. Known risk factors for CIN do not explain the differences in CIN occurrence between patients, but changes in the functions of the gut microbiome may be related to the occurrence of CIN. This study collects stool samples from breast cancer patients before and after chemotherapy to evaluate how changes in the microbiome may be associated with CIN.

This study is an open-label, single-Arm， phase II clinical trial of a Chinese Patent Medicine Yangzheng Xiaoji Capsule to improve the adverse reaction nausea of Niraparib in the first-line maintenance treatment in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and primary peritoneal cancer.

Palliative cancer patients with tumor pain often suffer from nausea and vomiting when starting pain therapy with opioids. The objective of the clinical pilot trial is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of palonosetron in the prophylactic treatment of opioid-induced nausea and vomiting.
