Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

The purpose of this study is to determine if Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) is effective in reducing nausea and vomiting experienced by patients recovering from anesthesia. OMT is a treatment in which the physician places his hands on areas of the body and applies pressure to correct disturbances in one area that may be related to a problem in another area of the body. Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine is a specialty for a physician who uses OMT. The hypothesis of this study is when OMT is combined with standard-of-care prophylactic anti-emetic therapy in patients following administration of inhalational anesthesia, in comparison to a control group receiving only standard-of-care anti-emetic prophylaxis there will be a reduction in the incidence and severity of PONV.

The investigators hypothesize that in adult patients with diabetic gastroparesis with Type 1 diabetes (HbA1c ≤ 10.5%), daily tadalafil use will significantly improve gastric emptying compared to baseline as measured by gastric emptying time.

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains a major obstacle to patient care and continues to decrease quality of life. Despite the addition of medications and antiemetic regimens, doctors' ability to control CINV is still inadequate: even moderately-emetogenic chemotherapy regimens cause roughly 20% of patients to have vomiting and over 40% to experience significant nausea. In this study, the investigators test a transcranial vibrating system that has shown great promise at reducing nausea and vomiting. .

The primary objective of this study is to determine the complete response (no vomiting and no need for other medications to treat nausea) in terminally ill patients suffering from nausea and/or vomiting, who are treated with palonosetron. Another objective is to determine the partial response (relief of nausea and vomiting to the extent that the patient wishes to continue treatment with palonosetron) after being treated with palonosetron. Palonosetron is currently approved by the FDA to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy. The investigators are testing this medication to see if it can help to relieve nausea and vomiting not associated with chemotherapy.

By comparing the incidence of PONV, the dosage of postoperative antiemetic drugs, the postoperative VAS score and the utilization rate of PCIA of hemophilia A patients in the NLR≥2 and NLR<2 groups, investigators could find out the high value in the diagnosis of hemophilia A, which is helpful to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment of hemophilia A.

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether there is an interaction occurs between etoposide and aprepitant in patients with testis carcinoma treated with the standard BEP regimen. Also to determine how long treatment with aprepitant is necessary in BEP regimen for 5 consecutive days.

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) adversely affects patients' quality of life and may affect patients' treatment decisions. The emetogenicity of the chemotherapy administered and specific patient characteristics such as female gender, age, and history of low alcohol intake can increase a patients' risk for CINV. GERSC is a new, subcutaneously (SC) administered polymeric formulation of Granisetron that was developed to provide slow, controlled, and sustained release of Granisetron to prevent both acute and delayed CINV associated with moderately emetic chemotherapy (MEC) and highly emetic chemotherapy (HEC)

The objective of this Open Label Study is to evaluate effects of Rolapitant IV solution, and its metabolite, on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the P-gp substrate (digoxin), the BCRP substrate (sulfasalazine), and multiple cytochrome P450 (CYP) probe substrates in a healthy adult population.

The purpose of the project is to estimate the effect size of a technology based intervention for older adults with cancer for nausea and vomiting. Participants will be randomized to either an intervention or a wait control group. Outcomes such as symptom severity, quality of life and resource use will be examined.

This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well netupitant and palonosetron hydrochloride works in preventing chronic nausea and vomiting in patients with cancer. Netupitant and palonosetron hydrochloride may reduce nausea and vomiting.
