Background Nausea, retching and vomiting are among the most common postoperative complaints. Premedication with low dose midazolam in addition to ondansetron is more effective in controlling postoperative nausea and vomiting. Objectives This study was designed to observe the effect of low dose midazolam 7.5mg in addition to ondansetron 4mg on postoperative nausea and vomiting in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods 100 patients of ASA grade I and II, age range 30-50 years and weight 50-70 kg were randomly selected by a blind envelop method. They were equally divided into four groups of 25 patients in group each. Group I received vitamin, Group II ondansetron 8mg, Group III ondansetron 8mg and midazolam 7.5mg and Group IV ondansetron 4mg and midazolam 7.5 mg orally one hour before operation. In the recovery room occurrence of nausea and vomiting was assessed for 24 hours. Results The incidence of nausea was in vitamin Group I 64%, in ond8 group II 32%, in ond8+mid7.5 group III 24% and in ond4+mid7.5 group IV 24%. The incidence among the groups was highly significant (p=0.008). The incidence of vomiting was in vitamin Group I 16%, in ond8 group II 16%, in ond8+mid7.5 group III 8% and in ond4+mid7.5 group IV 8%. The difference among the groups were not significant (p=0.808). Conclusion Low dose midazolam 7.5mg in addition to ondansetron 4mg is more effective in controlling postoperative nausea and vomiting in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

AIM: This study was aimed to compare the effects of ondansetron, haloperidol, and dexmedetomidine for reducing postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. METHODS: This randomised clinical trial study was performed on p.patients who were candidates for abdominal hysterectomy referring to Taleghani hospital in Arak. In this study, 114 patients with abdominal hysterectomy were randomly assigned to three groups (ondansetron, haloperidol, and dexmedetomidine) using the cubull randomisation method. RESULTS: The results revealed a significant difference between the three groups of ondansetron, haloperidol and dexmedetomidine in terms of scorpion vomiting in recovery, 2 and 4 hours after surgery, and vomiting score was significantly lower in the ondansetron group compared with the other two groups (P = 0.04; P = 0.02; P = 0.001). There was a significant difference between the three groups of e ondansetron, haloperidol and dexmedetomidine regarding the mean dose of metoclopramide in mg for 24 hours after surgery. Therefore, the dosage of dexmedetomidine in the ondansetron group was less than the other two groups (P = 0.001). CONCLUSION: these three drugs are effective in reducing PONV in patients undergoing a hysterectomy. However, the effect of ondansetron was found to be more than the other two drugs in reducing PONV.
