Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a frequent complication of surgery and anesthesia. The aim of this study is to estimate the incidence and the risk factors of PONV at Jordan University Hospital over one year period.

This study evaluates the prevalence of delayed chemotherapy induced nausea in adult oncology patients in real clinical practice of day clinics.

This study is aimed to only observe the feeding practices after surgery in children undergoing below umbilicus surgery in day care and any impact of length of fasting on vomiting after surgery. If the child meets the criteria for being included in this study, the parents will be provided with informed consent form at the time of arrival at the daycare unit or at the time of arrival in the waiting area of the operating room. If parents agree and sign the consent form, then the child will be included in the study. The length of fasting period after the surgery and any episode of vomiting from after surgery till discharge time to home, will be recorded on a printed form. The nature of this study is only observation and the child will not be subjected to any new technique or medications. Parents will also be contacted on the next day of surgery on the phone number for any further observation about the child's feeding and vomiting and parental satisfaction with the anesthesia given will also be asked.

The objective of the study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of granisetron patch after single administration to healthy subjects.

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common complication among surgical patients. The incidence ranging from 20% to 50% depends on different population studied. Clinical practice guidelines recommend routine PONV screening before surgery using the Apfel simplified risk score OR Koivuranta score. However, these two scores haven't been translated into Chinese version and tested for psychometric qualities. Therefore, this study aim to externally validate two PONV prediction models in the Chinese hospital setting for PONV assessment.

On February 25th, 2019, ITALFARMACO launched Nuperal® in Italy, an association of doxylamine succinate and pyridoxine hydrochloride authorized by AIFA for the symptomatic treatment of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP). This drug is also recommended as first choice drug therapy by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) Guidelines and is supported by extensive international literature. Numerous epidemiological researches conducted in the US and Norway have highlighted the extent of vomiting and pregnant nausea. Unfortunately to date, there are no information on the prevalence of this phenomenon in Italy, on its impact on women's lives and on the interaction between woman and gynecologists. The research hypothesis of the present survey is that, using a representative sample of pregnant women in Italy, it will be possible to identify the prevalence and weight of nausea and vomiting symptoms during pregnancy in this country. The study is an open, non-comparative, multicenter survey and the aim is to evaluate the prevalence and weight that the symptoms of nausea and vomiting have in pregnant women in Italy. The study population will include 600 women found during weeks 18-22 of pregnancy who will arrive at the three sites or will contact the Investigators after the Ethics Committee (EC) approval.

In this retrospective study, the investigators examined incidence and risk factors of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients with fentanyl-based intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV-PCA).

The study is an registry study based on data from the Swedish Perioperative Registry (SPOR) during the years 2016-2022 with the aim to explore the risk for postoperative nausea and vomiting at the recovery unit (early PONV). The study will explore several cohorts (for example a specific procedure) on a national basis, report the risk for early PONV and identify associated factors.

Risk factors for postoperative shoulder pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy were not clear. Moreover, risk factors for postoperative emesis specially for this surgery were not detailed and accurate. The present study is a prospective cohort study to identify risk factors for shoulder pain and emesis within 24 hours in Chinese patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia.

In this cross-section study, all patients in the gynecologic ward of Peking Union Medical College Hospital will accepted a survey about the prevalence and severity of nausea and vomiting according to visual analogue scale and WHO classification. Epidemiological, surgical, anaesthetic characteristics and post-operative treatment are considered as predictors for the post-operative nausea and vomiting. The primary objective is the incidence of nausea and vomiting. The secondary objective is the possible predictors of nausea and vomiting.
