A Single Dose, 4-Period, 2-Treatment Replicate Design Bioequivalency Study of Granisetron Hydrochloride...
NauseaVomitingThe objective of this study was to assess bioequivalence of a potential generic 1 mg granisetron tablet formulation compared with Roche Laboratories' 1 mg granisetron tablet, Kytril, following a single 1 mg dose, under fed conditions.
Antiemetic Prophylaxis for Postdischarge Nausea and Vomiting After Hip Arthroscopy
Nausea and VomitingPostoperativeThe study is a randomized placebo controlled trial to determine whether repeated postoperative prophylactic ondansetron ("Zofran") administration will prevent postoperative and/or postdischarge nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing ambulatory hip arthroscopy. Ondansetron will be administered in the intra- and post-operative period. These individuals will be followed on postoperative days 1, 2, and 3. It is hypothesized that the incidence of postdischarge nausea and vomiting (PDNV) will be significantly decreased by postoperative prophylactic administration of multiple doses of ondansetron (Zofran).
Opioid Free vs Opioid Based Anesthesia for Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
ObesityPostoperative Pain3 moreOpioid free anesthesia is an anesthetic technique, in which administration of multimodal analgesia and sympathicolytics provides hemodynamic stability without use of opioids. Such management may be beneficial to the obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Our study aims to compare opioid free anesthesia in such patients with standard, short-acting opioid based.
Intravenous Fluids After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Postoperative NauseaPostoperative Vomiting4 morePerioperative intravenous fluid (IV) administration has been the standard procedure since 1832 and, is a widely used practice sometimes under inadequate criteria. The present work aims at verifying the clinical need that justifies the common IV fluid prescription on the postoperative (PO) period in patients undergoing videolaparoscopic cholecystectomy (CVL) elective.
Mass-balance Study of [14C]-APD421 in Healthy Volunteers
Post-operative Nausea and VomitingOpen-label, non-randomised, single dose study in 6 healthy male subjects to assess the mass balance recovery, metabolite profile, metabolite identification and pharmacokinetics of 14C-labelled APD421
Study of the Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Safety and Tolerability of Fosaprepitant for the...
Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and VomitingThe purpose of this study was to determine the appropriate dosing regimen of fosaprepitant, when administered with ondansetron (with or without dexamethasone), for the prevention of CINV in children from birth to <17 years of age. Fosaprepitant is a prodrug to aprepitant. All participants who completed the randomized Cycle 1 could elect to receive open-label fosaprepitant during optional Cycles 2-6.
Intra-abdominal at Cesarean Section: A Randomized Controlled Trial
NauseaVomitingThe purpose of this study is to determine if intra-abdominal irrigation at the time of cesarean delivery increased maternal GI discomfort without affecting infection rates. We hypothesized that avoiding intra-operative irrigation at the time of cesarean delivery will decrease intra-operative nausea and vomiting without increasing maternal infectious morbidity, post-operative pain, return of bowel function, or time to discharge.
Rib Raising for Post-operative Ileus
Intestinal Pseudo-ObstructionManipulation5 moreWe are conducting a randomized controlled trial the use of rib raising for post-operative ileus. Rib raising is an osteopathic manipulative technique (OMT). We will recruit all patients undergoing major abdominal surgery and once they have been enrolled, we will randomize them to receive daily rib raising or a control technique where we place hands on the back but do not apply any pressure. In preliminary studies, Rib raising has been shown to reduce post-operative ileus and hospital length of stay by up to 50%.
Bioequivalence of Two Formulations of Ondansetron in Healthy Adults (0869-106)
Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and VomitingThis study will assess the bioequivalence of a Merck clinical trial formulation of ondansetron compared to a non-U.S. marketed formulation of ondansetron.
