Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

The main purpose of this study is the comparison of frequency of vomiting episodes (number of episodes per year) observed during the year after the begin of Q10 coenzyme treatment to frequency observed during the year before the begin of this treatment in children with cyclic vomiting syndrome. Secondary purposes are the evaluation of life quality of parents and children, of treatment safety and its economic cost compared to other recommended treatments.

This study was designed to compare the effects of gabapentin and ramosetron on PONV in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery.

The purpose of this study is to estimate effects of different kinds, different dose of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists on prevention of hypotension after spinal anesthesia

Chemotherapy induced nausea is a common side effect for children undergoing chemotherapy. Furthermore, chemotherapy-induced vomiting is a major factor limiting quality of life during treatment reported by paediatric cancer survivors. Complete prevention of both nausea and vomiting is the goal of anti-vomiting and nausea medications. It is important to understand whether or not certain chemotherapeutic treatments are more or less likely to cause these symptoms. Acute leukemia is the most common cancer diagnosed in children. Intrathecal methotrexate is an important part of chemotherapy for the prevention and treatment of central nervous system leukemia over the 2.5 to 3.5 years of the treatment program for leukemia. The likelihood that intrathecal methotrexate administered as monotherapy will cause nausea and vomiting has not yet been described in children. Knowledge of the likelihood that intrathecal methotrexate will cause nausea and vomiting will therefore be important to optimize treatment for these side-effects of chemotherapy. The primary aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the potential of intrathecal methotrexate to cause nausea and vomiting in paediatric cancer patients.

This study is designted to know optimal dose of Ramosteron to control for chemotherapy induced nasea and vomoting (CINV)based on its pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamic study and clinilcal parameters using Rhodes Index.

To evaluate the Utility of Acupuncture in the Treatment of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) in Ambulatory Surgery.

BACKGROUND: Few researches have manifested that intravenous (IV) lidocaine or dexmedetomidine decreased the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). The investigators investigated whether IV lidocaine plus dexmedetomidine infusion could better reduce the incidence of PONV after laparoscopic hysterectomy. METHODS: Two hundred and forty women with elective laparoscopic hysterectomy were randomly divided into four groups: the control group (group C, n=60) received an equal volume of saline, the lidocaine group (group L, n=60) received IV lidocaine (bolus infusion of 1.5 mg/kg over 10 min, 1.5 mg/kg/h continuous infusion), the dexmedetomidine group (group D, n=60) received dexmedetomidine administration (bolus infusion of 0.5 µg/kg over 10 min, 0.4 µg/kg/h continuous infusion), the lidocaine plus dexmedetomidine group (group LD, n=60) received combination of lidocaine (bolus infusion of 1.5 mg/kg over 10 min, 1.5 mg/kg/h continuous infusion) and dexmedetomidine administration (bolus infusion of 0.5 µg/kg over 10 min, 0.4 µg/kg/h continuous infusion). Primary outcome was the incidence of the first 48 h nausea, vomiting and PONV after surgery. The secondary outcomes included perioperative propofol and remifentanil consumption, postoperative fentanyl requirement, Ramsay sedation score, and bradycardia during post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) stay.

This Canadian, multi-centre, prospective, observational real-world study is designed to collect patient-reported outcome data on the use of Akynzeo® (netupitant/palonosetron) for the prevention of nausea and vomiting in oncology patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC).

The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after general anesthesia is up to 30% when inhalational anesthetics are used with no prophylaxis. This makes PONV one of the most common complaints following surgery under general anesthesia, together with postoperative pain.

Prospective observational study to analyse the association of non-genetic variables as well as genetic variants of candidate genes with the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).
