Active clinical trials for "Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting"

Post-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.

The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of changes in body temperature in the perioperative period on postoperative nausea and vomiting.

Nausea and vomiting after surgery are one of the complications that occur after general anesthesia, and the frequency is reported to range from 10% to 80% in the high-risk group. Several studies have introduced drugs and methods to prevent nausea and vomiting after surgery. Among them, midazolam administered before surgery is known to have anti-anxiolytic and sedative effects on the prevention of nausea and vomiting after surgery. It has also been reported to increase its effectiveness when administered with other antiemetic agents. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of administration of combination with midazolam and different antiemetic agents on the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting in high-risk patients.

Study aims at comparing the effect of granisteron with that of metoclopramide in patients undergoing lab cholecystectomy

The aim of this study is to compare the single point stimulation (P6) and double point stimulation (P6+ST36) performed before anesthesia induction with standard treatment in terms of PONV development and postoperative anti-emetic requirement in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Ramosetron 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.
