The Relationship

There is a passive blood flow to the stomach during oral and nasal surgery. It may cause postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). We researched the relationship between gastric decompression (GD) and severity of PONV in ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgery. 137 patients who have been into ENT surgery were included in the study. In Group I (n=70), patients received GD after surgery before extubation; patients in Group II (n=67) did not receive GD. In postoperative 2nd, 4th, 8th, and 12th hours, the number and ratio of patients demonstrating PONV were detected to be significantly more in Group II as compared to Group I. PONV was also significantly more severe in Group II as compared to Group I. In Group I, the PONV ratio in the 2nd hour was significantly more for those whose amounts of stomach content aspired were more than 10 mL as compared to those whose stomach content aspired was less than 10 mL. In the 4th, 8th, and 24th hours, there is no statistically significant difference between the stomach content aspired and PONV ratio. GD reduces the incidence and severity of PONV in ENT surgery.

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.

The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting is generally associated with anesthesia and surgery. The problem is compounded in cases of high-risk surgeries where the incidence is quite high. The present study was designed to compare the efficacy of Dexamethasone and Ondansetron. Methods: This study was undertaken at the Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences, Naganoor, Karimnagar. In this randomized, open clinical trial, we studied 80 ASA grades I to 1V patients of age group 20-60 years undergoing Laparoscopic Laparotomy, Major Gynecological surgeries, Renal, Shoulder and ENT surgeries under general anesthesia. The patients were randomly divided into two groups, Group I and Group II, each consisting of 80 patients. Group I received 4mg dexamethasone intravenous (IV) just after intubation and group II received 4mg Ondansetron intravenous (IV), just before extubation. Results: The most common age group was 50 – 59 years which had n=45(28.1%) patients out of which group I was n=24(15%) patients and n=21(13.1%) patients. The next common age group was 20 – 29 years out of which n=23 (14.4%) and n=18(11.2%). ondansetron group, early nausea is mild in 6.9%, moderate in 3.8%, and severe in 1.2% of patients. Whereas in the dexamethasone group early nausea is mild in 6.2%, moderate in 4.4%, severe in 1.9% of patients. In the ondansetron group, late nausea is mild in 9.4%, moderate in 3.8%, and severe in 0.6% of patients. Whereas in the dexamethasone group late nausea is mild in 7.5%, moderate in 4.4%, severe in 0.6% of patients. In the ondansetron group, early vomiting is mild in 5.0%, moderate in 0.6%, and severe in 0.6% of patients. Whereas in the dexamethasone group early vomiting is mild in 4.4%, moderate in 1.2%, severe in 0.6% of patients. Conclusion: dexamethasone given intravenously just after intubation and ondansetron given intravenously just before extubation are safe and have similar efficacy in postoperative nausea and vomiting after elective surgeries under general anesthesia having a high risk of PONV

Induction Of Anaesthesia

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is common after anaesthesia and surgery. In patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) without antiemetic prophylaxis, the incidence can be as high as 76% which would cause unexpected delay in hospital discharge. This study was designed to compare the efficacy of the ondansetron alone with combination of ondansetron and dexamethasone the given as prophylaxis for PONV in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. One hundred patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups of 50 each. Group I received 4mg of ondansetron intravenously (iv), whereas Group II received ondansetron 4mg and dexamethasone 4mg just before induction of anaesthesia. Postoperatively, the patients were assessed for episodes of nausea, vomiting and need for rescue antiemetic. Complete response defined as no nausea and vomiting during first 24 hours, was noted in 76% of patients in Group I and in 92% of patients in Group II. Rescue anti emetic requirement was less in Group II (4%) than Group I (20%). So it can be concluded that the combination of ondansetron and dexamethasone is more effective in preventing PONV in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy than ondansetron alone.Faridpur Med.

ABSTRACT Introduction We compared the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using propofol–air to inhalational anesthesia with isoflurane–nitrous oxide in day care patients at a tertiary care academic institution. Materials and methods We randomized 60 patients and assigned to either group I (inhalational anesthesia with isoflurane– nitrous oxide) or group II (TIVA with propofol–air). Incidence of PONV, use of anti-emetics, and duration of stay in the recovery were recorded for 72 hours by blinded observers. Results Total intravenous anesthesia reduced the PONV up to 72 hours by 27% among our patients (from 37 to 10%, p < 0.001). This effect was seen more in the early postoperative period. Overall, 13.3% of patients in the group I received antiemetic compared to 40% in group II. In our study, patients without PONV were discharged from the recovery room 15 minutes earlier after TIVA than after isoflurane and N2O anesthesia. Conclusion Total intravenous anesthesia with propofol and air resulted in a reduction of PONV compared with iso-flurane–nitrous oxide anesthesia. Overall, patients in group I required less rescue antiemetic, compared to group II. Total intravenous anesthesia resulted in shorter stay in the postoperative anesthetic care unit compared to isoflurane–N2O group.

Gynaecological surgery is of high emetogenic potential and both total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) and prophylactic antiemetic therapy may reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). We studied 144 patients scheduled for day-case gynaecological laparoscopy in a randomized trial comparing balanced inhalational anaesthesia and prophylactic dolasetron (group I+D) with propofol TIVA and dolasetron (group T+D) or TIVA alone (group T). The primary outcome of “complete response” (no vomiting, no treatment for PONV) was not significantly different among groups (34%, 51%, 32%; groups I+D vs T+D vs T, P=0.12). During the first hour after surgery, group I+D had nausea of greater severity (P<0.03). During hospital admission, group T had more vomiting (P<0.03). From discharge until 24 hours postoperatively, 55% of group I+D experience nausea and 38% vomited. The incidence and severity of nausea were significantly lower in the TIVA groups (P<0.04 and < 0.05 respectively). There were no significant differences between groups T+D and T, although comparing all groups the complete response rate was highest and the post-discharge incidence and severity of nausea lowest in group T+D. In conclusion, propofol TIVA, with or without dolasetron, reduced postoperative nausea, but not perioperative vomiting or antiemetic requirement, when compared with inhalational anaesthesia plus dolasetron.

Aim.Efficacy of granisetron and combination of granisetron and dexamethasone was evaluated for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in children undergoing elective strabismus surgery.Methods.A total of 136 children (1–15 years) were included. Children received either granisetron (40 mcg/kg) [group G] or combination of granisetron (40 mcg/kg) and dexamethasone (150 mcg/kg) [group GD]. Intraoperative fentanyl requirement and incidence and severity of oculocardiac reflex were assessed. PONV severity was assessed for first 24 hours and if score was >2, it was treated with metoclopramide. Postoperative analgesia was administered with intravenous fentanyl and ibuprofen.Results.The demographic profile, muscles operated, and fentanyl requirement were comparable. Complete response to PONV in first 24 hours was observed in 75% (51/68) of children in group G and 76.9% (50/65) of children in group GD, which was comparable statistically (p=0.96, Fisher exact test; OR 1.11, 95% CI 0.50, 2.46). Incidence of PONV between 0 and 24 hours was comparable. One child in group G required rescue antiemetic in first 24 hours and none of the children had severe PONV in group GD. There was no significant difference in incidence or severity of oculocardiac reflex.Conclusion.Dexamethasone did not increase efficacy of granisetron for prevention of PONV in elective pediatric strabismus surgery. Registration number of clinical trial wasCTRI/2009/091/001000.

Introduction. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations still continue to be a serious problem. Intravenous fluid administration has been shown to reduce PONV. Some patients have higher risk for PONV described by APFEL score. In this study, our aim was to determine the effects of preoperative intravenous hydration on postoperative nausea and vomiting in high Apfel scored patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery.Patients and Methods. This study is performed with 50 female patients who had APFEL score 3-4 after ethics committee approval and informed consent was taken from patients. The patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (P1): propofol + preoperative hydration and group 2 (P2): propofol + no preoperative hydration.Results. When the total nausea VAS scores of groups P1and P2to which hydration was given or not given were compared, a statistically significant difference was detected at 8th and 12th hours (P=0.001andP=0.041). It was observed that in group P1, which was given hydration, the nausea VAS score was lower. When the total number of patients who had nausea and vomiting in P1and P2, more patients suffered nausea in P2group.Discussion. Preoperative hydration may be effective in high Apfel scored patients to prevent postoperative nausea.

Abstract Objective : YKL-40, a new biomarker of localized inflammation, is secreted by macrophages and regulates inflammation and immune responses. The aim of this study was to investigate YKL-40 levels in saliva and compare the level of this mediator in healthy and unhealthy oral cavity. Methods: 85 children (46 girls, 39 boys), aged 6-15 (mean±SD: 9.15±2.16) were included in this study. The children were divided into three groups: Group-I (control, n=25, DMFT/dmft=0), Group-II (n=30, exist of localized dental caries) and Group-III (n=30, exist of localized advanced dental caries). Gingival index (GI), plaque index (PI), DMFT/dmft, DMFS/dmfs, and the number of advanced dental caries according to the ICDAS II and PUFA/pufa index were recorded. Saliva was collected and YKL-40 concentrations were measured. One-way ANOVA with Tukey post hoc, Kruskal-Wallis, multiple regression analysis, and Sperman’s correlation tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: The highest level of YKL-40 was obtained in group III , followed by groups II and I , respectively (p<0.01). In Group II, DMFT/dmft scores and the number of caries (DT/dt) were higher than in group III (p<0.01). In group III, there was a statistically significant correlation between YKL-40 levels in saliva and the number of advanced dental caries. In addition, there was no statistically significant difference in terms of age and gender (p>0.05). Conclusion: Advanced dental caries, rather than DMFT/dmft score, may play an important role in the increasing levels of YKL-40 in saliva.

Abstract Background : Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are common side-effects following strabismus surgery. The present study aimed to compare the effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on PONV incidence in pediatric patients undergoing strabismus surgery. Methods : In this prospective randomized double-blinded study, 126 pediatric patients undergoing strabismus surgery were randomized into one of three groups: Placebo group, normal saline; DEX1 group, 0.3 ug/kg dexmedetomidine, and DEX2 group, 0.5 ug/kg dexmedetomidine. Oculocardiac reflex (OCR) events were recorded during surgery. PONV or postoperative vomiting (POV) was recorded for 24 hours in the ward. Pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale and emergence agitation (EA) scale were recorded in the recovery room. Results : Intraoperative OCR was significantly reduced in DEX2 group (42%) as compared to that of Placebo group (68%) (p=0.0146). During the first 24 hours post-op, the overall incidence of PONV was significantly lower in DEX2 group (10%) than that of Placebo group (32%) (p=0.0142). There was no significant difference in POV among the three groups. PAED or EA scores among the three groups were similar during recovery time. Conclusion : Dexmedetomidine (0.5 ug/kg) reduced OCR and PONV without lengthening extubation time or recovery time in pediatric patients undergoing strabismus surgery.
