Materials and methods. The study included 20 patients aged 25 to 84, 11 men and 9 women with various front eye pathologies. 10 patients were anesthetized according to the classic scheme taken in our clinic. In the other 10 patients, the pain relief scheme was supplemented by the implementation of pterygopalatine fossa block. Monitoring during the operation included non-invasive monitoring of hemodynamics, pulsoxymetry, determination of oxygen and carbon dioxide concentration in exhaled air. In postoperative period level of pain was fixed using visual-analogue scale and frequency of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Results. The study found that patients in the groups had no statistically significant differences in sex, age and severity of surgery. At all stages of the study, the severity of pain in patients with the pterygopalatine fossa block was reliably lower than in patients in the control group. The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was also lower in the blockade group.

Anesthesia Depth

Bispectral index parameter is used to guide the titration of general anesthesia. This monitoring improves recovery times and hospital discharges, as well as minimizes adverse events. The objective of this study is the comparison of anesthesia depth monitoring by conventional and bispectral index on nausea and vomiting after urological surgery. 180 participants who were scheduled for abdominal urological surgery were studied. Patients before induction of anesthesia were randomize into two groups with and without bispectral index monitoring. Incidence and severity of nausea and vomiting were recorded every 30 minutes for 2 hours and every 6 hours to 24 hours after surgery. The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in Bispectral index group is 14.4% and 8.9% and in control group 28.9% and 23.3%, respectively. The risk of nausea and vomiting after surgery was reduced by 14.5% and 14.4%, respectively in patients monitored with bispectral index.INTRODUCTIONNausea is the conscious perception of medulla stimulation that is associated with vomiting center and create vomiting response (1). General anesthesia with the use of inhalants can cause nausea and vomiting after surgery (Postoperative nausea and vomiting, PONV). The incidence of PONV is reported about 20-30 percent (2). It seems that multiple-factor can cause PONV and few items such as anesthetic drugs, kind of surgery and personal risk factors is effective on PONV. These factors make into two categories that includes factors out of control by anesthesiologists and factors can control by anesthesiologists.1. Factors out of control by anesthesiologists: some of these factors are age, gender, past history of PONV and motion sickness, smoking, kind of surgery, operating time and anesthesia time, anxiety of patients and parents. 2. Factors controlled by anesthesiologists: these factors are associated of anesthesia settings, including premedications, kind of anesthesia, anesthesia drugs during surPublishedby Australian

Purpose: To date, no protocol of anesthesia for pediatric ophthalmic surgery is unanimously recognized. The primary anesthetic risks are associated with strabismus surgery, including oculocardiac reflex, postoperative nausea and vomiting, and postoperative pain. Methods: This was a prospective, monocentric, observational study conducted in a tertiary pediatric ophthalmic unit. Our anesthetic protocol for strabismus surgery included postoperative nausea and vomiting prevention using dexamethasone and ondansetron. No drug-based prevention of oculocardiac reflex or local/locoregional anesthesia was employed. Results: A total of 106 pediatric ophthalmic surgeries completed between November 2015 and May 2016 were analyzed. The mean patient age was 4.4 (range: 0.2–7.3, standard deviation: 2.4) years. Ambulatory rate was 90%. Oculocardiac reflex incidence was 65% during strabismus surgery (34/52), 50% during congenital cataract surgery (4/8), 33% during intramuscular injection of botulinum toxin (1/3), and 0% during other procedures. No asystole occurred. Postoperative nausea and vomiting incidence was 9.6% after strabismus surgery (5/52) and 0% following the other procedures. One child was hospitalized for one night because of persistent postoperative nausea and vomiting. Postoperative pain generally occurred early on in the recovery room and was quickly controlled. Its incidence was higher in patients who underwent strabismus surgery (27%) than in those who underwent other procedures (9%). Conclusion: Morbidity associated with ophthalmic pediatric surgery is low and predominantly associated with strabismus surgery. The benefit–risk ratio and cost-effectiveness of oculocardiac reflex prevention should be questioned. Our postoperative nausea and vomiting rate is low, thanks to the use of a well-managed multimodal strategy. Early postoperative pain is usually well-treated but could probably be more effectively prevented.

Postoperative nausea and vomiting are common adverse effects of anaesthesia and surgery. Up to 80% of patients may be affected. These outcomes are a major cause of patient dissatisfaction. In addition, postoperative nausea and vomiting can independently cause the occurrence of rather serious complications of the postoperative period, such as aspiration of gastric contents into the airways, hemodynamic disorders in patients with a compromised cardiovascular system, failure of surgical sutures, bleeding, dehydration and electrolyte imbalance which ultimately can lead to disability of patients, prolongation of their hospitalization and higher treatment costs. Material and methods. The paper presents the results of our own research on the use of multimodal low-opioid general anesthesia as one of the methods for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting during anesthetic provision of laparoscopic kidney surgery. The study involved 38 patients who underwent laparoscopic kidney surgery. Results and discussion. To compare the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, patients were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1 used multimodal general anesthesia with standard opioid doses, while group 2 used multimodal low-opioid general anesthesia. The total average dose of fentanyl that was used during the entire time of anesthesia in the control group was 373.3 ± 50.8 μg (4.34 μg / kg / h). The total average dose of fentanyl that was used during the entire time of anesthesia in the study group was 217.39 ± 49.1 μg (1.76 μg / kg / h). In group 1, vomiting occurred in 4 patients out of 15 in the postoperative period, in group 2 there were 4 patients with vomitting, but out of 23 operated patients. The standardized rate of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the control group was 26.6%, in the main group it was 17.3%. Conclusion. As a result of comparing the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients of both study groups, we found that a decrease in the dose of perioperative use of opioids helps to reduce the incidence of this complication, which increased the safety of anesthetic management, greatly facilitated and accelerated the rehabilitation of patients after laparoscopic kidney surgery. The work also highlighted and systematized information on the morphology of structures involved in the formation of postoperative nausea and vomiting, on the physiology of this process

Various techniques are applied to reduce the severity of postoperative pain and discomfort in patients. The purpose of this research work was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant of anesthesia in ophthalmic surgery. The study included 80 patients who underwent  corneal transplantation on the basis of Dnepropetrovsk Regional Clinical Ophthalmologic Hospital. Patients were divided into 2 groups: control (group K) – 30 men and main (group D) – 50 ones. Multicomponent balanced anesthesia was applied in both groups. Sibazone was administered as the sedative medicine in the group K, Dexmedetomedin was administered in the group D. The main criteria for evaluating the research results were hallmarked: hemodynamic stability during surgery, the amount of administered opiates, the severity of intraoperative pain syndrome by evaluating the ANI index (ANI – analgesia nociception index), the severity of postoperative pain syndrome and the frequency of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Both schemes of anesthesia allowed avoiding pronounced fluctuations in hemodynamic parameters and gas exchange at all stages of the study. Analyzing the severity of intraoperative pain, we found that in group K pain relief could be considered insufficient during the first 7 minutes of the most traumatic stage of the surgery, while in group D the ANI index did not fall below 50. Statistically significant differences were obtained on minute 1, 2, 5, 6, and 7 of the surgery. The number of episodes of insufficient anesthesia during the most traumatic stage of the surgery in group K was statistically significantly higher than in group D. Analyzing the quality of pain relief in the postoperative period it was determined, that the level of pain on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) after awakening in both groups was equal to 0. At the next three stages of the study (2 hours, 6 hours after surgery, and the next morning), the level of pain in group K was significantly higher than in group D. In addition, it was determined that the need for narcotic analgesics and the number of episodes of postoperative nausea and vomiting in group K was statistically significantly higher than in group D. These given data allow us to conclude that Dexmedetomedin is the effective adjuvant of the anesthesia for corneal transplantation.

Abstract Objective To investigate the effects of preoperative fasting abbreviation with a carbohydrate and protein-enriched solution, on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) incidence in gynecological surgery patients, a population naturally at risk for such unpleasant episodes. Methods The present prospective double-blind randomized study was performed at The Hospital Municipal e Maternidade Dr. Odelmo Leão Carneiro (HMMOLC, in the Portuguese acronym), in Uberlândia, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in partnership with the Gynecology Department of the Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee of UNIFESP and the board of HMMOLC, and included in the Brazil Platform and in the Brazilian Clinical Trial Registry. After signing the consent form, 80 women, who were submitted to gynecological surgery in the period from January to June 2016, were randomized into 2 groups: control group (n = 42) and juice group (n = 38). They received, respectively, 200 mL of inert solution or liquid enriched with carbohydrate and protein 4 hours presurgery. The incidence, frequency and intensity of PONV were studied using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), with statistical analysis performed by the software IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 20.0 (IBM Corp, Armonk, NY, USA). Results The incidence of nausea and vomiting was lower than in the literature, to this population, with 18.9% (14/74) for the control group and 10.8% (8/74) for the juice group, respectively, with no statistically significant difference between the groups. Conclusion The incidence of nausea and vomiting was lower than in the literature, but it cannot be said that this is due to the abbreviation of fasting. It can provide greater comfort, with the possibility of PONV prevention in patients at risk for these episodes.

Post Operative Nausea

<p class="Normal1">Postoperative Nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common complication after surgery.The incidence of postoperative nausea vomiting is approximately 30% of all patients undergoing inpatient surgery and 70% of cases occur within the first 24 hours. One of nausea and vomiting treatment is non-pharmacological therapies with complementary acupressure therapy. Furthermore, the research was conducted to determine the effect of acupressure complementary therapies against postoperative nausea and vomiting.The research was Quasi-Experimental research design Non-equivalent Control Group, the sampling technique used purposive sampling technique. Based on results of sample calculation used amounted to 22 respondents, consisting of 11 experimental groups and 11 control groups. Collecting data was used questionnaire and analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis by Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney with α values (&lt;0.05).The results showed the difference in score of nausea and vomiting the first and second measurements in the control group given a placebo action is 0.91 with a p-value (0.26). Nausea and vomiting difference in scores obtained before and after acupressure complementary therapies in the experimental group was 2:18 with a p-value (0.004). As well as the difference in scores obtained post-operative nausea and vomiting in the control group and the experiment is 1:27 with the p-value (0.009). The above statistical test results can be concluded that there was the effect of complementary acupressure therapy on postoperative nausea vomiting. Based on the conclusion of the research, the authors suggest that complementary acupressure therapy can be applied as a companion therapy and it is expected that nursing staff can learn complementary acupressure therapy.</p>

Multimodal prophylaxis for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) has been recommended, even in low-risk patients. Midazolam is known to have antiemetic properties. We researched the effects of adding midazolam to the dual prophylaxis of ondansetron and dexamethasone on PONV after gynecologic laparoscopy. In this prospective, randomized, double-blinded trial, 144 patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery under sevoflurane anesthesia were randomized to receive either normal saline (control group, n = 72) or midazolam 0.05 mg/kg (midazolam group, n = 72) intravenously at pre-induction. All patients were administered dexamethasone 4 mg at induction and ondansetron 4 mg at the completion of the laparoscopy, intravenously. The primary outcome was the incidence of complete response, which implied the absence of PONV without rescue antiemetic requirement until 24 h post-surgery. The complete response during the 24 h following laparoscopy was similar between the two groups: 41 patients (59%) in the control group and 48 patients (72%) in the midazolam group (p = 0.11). The incidence of nausea, severe nausea, retching/vomiting, and administration of rescue antiemetic was comparable between the two groups. The addition of 0.05 mg/kg midazolam at pre-induction to the dual prophylaxis had no additive preventive effect on PONV after gynecologic laparoscopy.

Background. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of common complications in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of subhypnotic (1 mg/kg/h) infusion of propofol with dexamethasone on PONV in patients undergoing LC.Methods. A total of 120 patients were included in this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Patients were randomly assigned to 3 groups; patients of group dexamethasone (group D) were administrated 8 mg dexamethasone before induction of anesthesia, patients of group propofol (group P) were infused to subhypnotic (1 mg/kg/h) propofol during operation and patients of group control (group C) were applied infusion of 10% intralipid. The incidence of PONV and needs for rescue analgesic and antiemetic were recorded in the first 24 h postoperatively.Results. In the 0–24 h, the incidence of PONV was significantly lower in the group D and group P compared with the group C (37.5%, 40%, and 72.5%, resp.). There was no significant difference in the incidence of PONV and use of antiemetics and analgesic between group D and group P.Conclusion. We concluded that infusion of propofol 1 mg/kg/h is as effective as dexamethasone for the prevention of PONV during the first 24 hours after anesthesia in patients undergoing LC.
