Post Operative Nausea

Background: Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is quite associated with laparoscopic surgery. In-spite of advances in surgery and post surgical care, nausea and vomiting still has a high incidence. This study was planned to explore the efcacy of a combination therapy of ondansetron with dexamethasone against PONVand compare the results with the efcacy of ondensetron-only. Method:Arandomized clinical trial study was conducted in the Department of Anesthesia, GMC Jammu, over a period of 6 months, on 50 patients in the age group of 18-50 years, of either gender, undergoing laparoscopic surgeries under general anesthesia. Patients were divided into two groups of 25 each: Group A received 4 mg of Ondansetron intravenously, while Group B received 4 mg of Ondansetron and 8 mg of Dexamethasone intravenously, soon after intubation. Results: The demographic variables of two groups were similar. While 19 (76%) patients showed post-operative nausea in Group A, while in Group B, only 8 (32%) patients experienced nausea, which was very signicant. Similarly, 11 (44%) patients showed post-operative vomiting in GroupAand only 2 (8%) complained of vomiting. 24% patients did not complain about any kind of nausea or vomiting in GroupA. Mild nausea was observedin60%patientsinGroupA,while amongonly32%patientsingroupB.Nocomplications of anykindwereobservedduringthisstudy. Conclusion: Ondensetron and dexamethasone, administered intravenously, after intubation, in laparoscopic surgery, is safe and has a better patient response in preventing post-operative nausea and vomiting.

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.

Objective: To examine the effectiveness of dexamethasone and ondansetron in reducing the incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients following laparoscopic surgery. Patients and Methods: A total number of 100 patients who were planned for laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia having age 20-60 years were included in this study from a tertiary care hospital from Dec-2019 to June-2021. Patients were divided in to two group using Draw randomization technique. Group I; in these patients IV dexamethasone 8 mg was given at the time of induction of anesthesia. Group II; in these patients Ondansetron (4 mg IV) was given at induction of anesthesia. After completing the surgery and shifting the patient to the recovery room frequency of PONV within 6 hours after surgery was noted. Results: Mean age of the patients was 43.31±10.41 years. There were 54 (54.00%) male patients and 46 (46.00%) female patients. There were 75 (75.00%) patients with ASA I and 25 (25.00%) patients with ASA II. PONV occurred in 11 (22.00%) patients in dexamethasone group and in 21 (42.00%) patients in ondansetron group (p-value 0.03). Conclusion: After laparoscopic surgery, dexamethasone decreased the prevalence of nausea and vomiting. A single dosage of dexamethasone was proven to be a safe and cost-effective alternative to a single dose of ondansetron. Keywords: Dexamethasone, Ondansetron, post-operative Nausea and vomiting.
