Our study aimed to compare the efficacy of dexamethasone added to palonosetron to both palonosetron and dexamethasone monotherapy for preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting in highly susceptible patients receiving opioid-based, intravenous patient-controlled analgesia after thyroidectomy. Nonsmoking women who underwent total thyroidectomy were randomly allocated to either the dexamethasone group (Group D), the palonosetron group (Group P), or to the dexamethasone plus palonosetron group (Group DP). The severity of nausea and pain, the number of episodes of vomiting, the administrations of rescue anti-emetics, and the side effects of the antiemetics were documented in the recovery room at 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours after surgery. The severity of nausea was lowest in Group DP, followed by Group P and Group D. But there was an overall difference only between Group D and Group DP. The overall differences in the time to the first administration of the rescue antiemetic were observed in a Kaplan-Meier analysis (P = 0.017), noting a significant difference between Group D and Group DP (P = 0.003). The combination of dexamethasone and palonosetron decreased the severity of nausea and increased the time to the first antiemetic dose compared with using dexamethasone or palonosetron alone in nausea-susceptible patients undergoing thyroidectomy.

Postoperative nausea and vomiting are the common morbidity after general anaesthesia and surgery. One of the essential goals of anaesthetic management is to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting. The consequence of prolonged postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) ranges from unexpected admission of day patients with its economic implications to physical, metabolic and psychological effects on the patients which slow their recovery and reduced their confidence in future surgery and anaesthesia. The present study was designed to compare the efficacy of Granisetron with that of Ondansetron and Metoclopramide in the treatment and prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This study was also done to observe the incidence of nausea and vomiting in the postoperative period, to observe the requirement of rescue antiemetic, to find out the haemodynamic stability, saturation of arterial oxygen in these groups of subject and to detect the patients satisfaction by verbal rating scale after 24 hours of surgery. A total number of 90 patients, sex female, age range 30-50 years undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were selected. They were equally divided into three groups of 30 patients. They received a standard general anaesthesia. Group I received injection Granisetron (1mg), Group II received injection Ondansetron (8mg), Group III received injection Metoclopramide (10mg) 10 minutes before reversal of anaesthesia. Postoperative analgesia was provided with injection pethidine (1.5mg/kg/bd.wt.) intramuscularly 8 hourly. In the recovery room occurrence of nausea and vomiting was assessed for 24 hours. The incidence of emesis free (no nausea) was significantly higher in patients who received Ganisetron (90.0%, 27/ 30) than in those who received Ondansetron [(66.7%, 20/30), p=0.028] or metoclopramide [(40.0%, 12/30), p= 0.000].The incidence of vomiting free was significantly higher in patients who received Granisetron (93.3%, 28/30) than in those who received Ondansetron [73.3%, 22/30), p= 0.037] or Metoclopramide [46.7%, 14/30), p= 0.000]. Granisetron was associated with greater patients' satisfaction than Ondansetron and Metoclopramide 40%, 20% and 10% of patients respectively. No need for another rescue antiemetic medication was achieved in 86.7% of patients with granisetron, 70.60% with Ondansetron and 53.3% with Metoclorpramide. The haemodynamic variables, heart rate, blood pressure, SpO2 were recorded carefully in different time intervals. There was no significant difference among the study. So, it can be concluded that Granisetron is more effective than Ondansetron and Metoclopramide in the prevention and treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is common complication after general anesthesia and surgery. This randomized double-blind study was designed to compare the effects of acupressure wrist bands and palonosetron for the prevention of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia.Methods: Sixty ASA I and II patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgeries under general anaesthesia were divided into two groups. In Group A patients, acupressure wrist bands were applied on p6 point on both hands half an hour before induction. Group P patients received inj. palonosetron 0.075 m.g. i.v. just before induction. Anaesthesia technique was standardized. Post-operatively patients were monitored for nausea, retching or vomiting upto 24 hours. If patients vomited more than once, they were given inj. Metoclopramide 10mg as rescue antiemetic. Efficacy of drugs was compared using Chi square test. ‘p’ value of <0.05 is considered significant.Results: The incidence of PONV and requirement of rescue antiemetic were lower in palonosetron group than acupressure wrist band group.Conclusions: Palonosetron is more effective than acupressure wrist band for prophylaxis of post- operative nausea and vomiting in the patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia, but acupressure wrist band can also be used as an alternative non-pharmacological method.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of Metoclopramide versus Dexamethasone for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting during general anesthesia. Study Design:This is a Randomized control trial (RCT) study. Setting: Study carried out at Department of Anaesthesiology, Surgical Intensive Care Unit and Pain Management, Clinic, Dow University of Health Sciences and  Dr. Ruth Pfau  Hospital Karachi, from December 2018 to June 2019. Materials and Methods:110 patients undergoing elective surgeries, who fulfilled the inclusion criteria and gave informed consent were included in the study. They were randomly assigned to either group M or group D, with 55 patients in each group. All patients were then administered either intravenous dexamethasone (8mg) in group D or intravenous metoclopramide (10mg) in group M at the time of induction of anesthesia. The main outcome measure was postoperative nausea and vomiting, at the end of 6th hour postoperatively. The SPSS version 21 was applied to the data. Results: Majority of the patients 66 (60%) were of age 35 years or less. Mean age of the patients was 35.09±11.55 years. There were more females than males, with male to female ratio being 1:1.03. Overall, in patients receiving metoclopramide, 12(21.8%)  had postoperative nausea and vomiting, while in patients who received dexamethasone, only 4 (7.3%) patients had post-operative nausea and vomiting. When comparing two groups, there was statistically significant (p= 0.02) reduced postoperative nausea/vomiting among those patients who had received intravenous dexamethasone. Conclusion: Intravenous dexamethasone is more effective than Metoclopramide in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients during general anesthesia.

Objectives: Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a frequently experienced complication following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This study was planned to compare the antiemetic efficacy of palonosetron with ondansetron in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods: A total of 100 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomized into two groups. Group O (n=50) received ondansetron (8 mg) and Group P (n=50) received palonosetron (0.075 mg) 3 min before induction of anesthesia. Post-operatively, patients were assessed for the occurrence of nausea, retching, or vomiting at 0–2, 2–6, 6–24, 0–24, and 24–48 h time intervals. The overall incidence of PONV in time frame (0–48 h) was determined. The need of rescue antiemetic, side effect profile, and patient satisfaction scores were also assessed.Results: The incidence and severity of nausea at all the time intervals were comparable in the two groups. The incidence of vomiting was significantly less in Group P as compared to Group O in 0–2 h (2% vs. 14%, p=0.027) and 0–24 h time intervals (10% vs. 30%, p=0.012). The overall incidence of PONV in 0–48h was lesser in Group P as compared to Group O (28% vs. 50%, p=0.024). Rescue antiemetic was required in greater number of patients in Group O as compared to Group P (p=0.038). Side effect profile and patient satisfaction scores were comparable in the two groups.Conclusion: Palonosetron is better than ondansetron in lowering the overall incidence of PONV in 0–48 h time interval, in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

This study compares the preoperative administration of ondansetron with that of droperidol or saline solution for the prevention of nausea and vomiting in otologic surgery patients. A total of 120 otherwise healthy individuals were randomly assigned to receive either saline solution, ondansetron (4 mg intravenously), or droperidol (25 μg/kg intravenously) before anesthetic induction. Intraoperative and postanesthesia care unit times were recorded along with incidence of nausea, vomiting, pain, nausea and recovery scores, and the administration of rescue antiemetics. Similar assessments were made during the next 24 hours. Demographics were similar, but more males received ondansetron. Anesthetic recovery scores were lower after administration of droperidol than after ondansetron. Incidence of nausea was similar between groups, but severity was greater with placebo and droperidol than with ondansetron. More vomiting occurred with placebo than with ondansetron or droperidol. No intergroup differences in rescue antiemetic administration were noted, however. Twenty-four hours later, more patients receiving placebo had nausea or vomited than patients receiving droperidol or ondansetron. Fewer women in the ondansetron group vomited than in the other two groups. Ondansetron 4 mg intravenously is as effective as droperidol and better than saline solution in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing otologic surgery. No cost advantage as determined by lower use of rescue antiemetics or shorter postanesthesia care unit times was noted after ondansetron therapy. (Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 1998;118:785–9.)

Post Operative Nausea

Post operative nausea and vomiting is a frequent complication following general anaesthesia and surgery. There is frequently the case of great distress to patient and it is often the worst memory, uncomfortable of their hospital stay. Prolonged post operative nausea and vomiting may cause unexpected physical, metabolic, psychological and economic effects on the patients which slow down their recovery and reduce their confidence in future surgery and anaesthesia. In the present study, we have the incidence of post operative nausea and vomiting in sixty (60) patients undergoing for elective procedure under general anaesthesia. The patients were randomly divided into two groups (group- P, group- G) of thirty (30) patients each.The Patients of group ‘P’ were received intravenous Inj. Palonosetron 75μg and group ‘G’ received intravenous Inj. granisetron 2.5mg (2.5ml) bolus over 30 second just before peritoneal closure. Both group received a standard general anaesthesia. Postoperative analgesia was provided with per rectal diclofenac suppository (50mg) and Inj. Ketorolac Tromethamine 30mg 8 hourly. In the recovery, postoperative room occurrence of nausea and vomiting was assessed for 24 hours. The incidence of post operative nausea and vomiting was reduced in both groups significantly but comparison between these two groups for prevention of PONV(postoperative nausea and vomiting) following elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery is similar. Palonosetron has more prolonged effect than granisetron. There was no evidence of any adverse side effects and whole of the post operative period was smooth.TAJ 2011; 24(2): 118-123

Post Operative Nausea

BACKGROUND : Palonosetron is a new potent 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 antagonist. Although used for chemo induced emesis, data is lacking for PONV. The high incidence of nausea and vomiting after breast surgery is well documented. This study compared the effects of i.v.ondansetron and palonosetron administered at the time of induction for preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in these high-risk patients . The aim was to compare Onda METHODS : nsetron 8 mg and Palonosetron 0.075mg administered intravenously for prevention of post operative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing modied radical mastectomy 24 hours postoperatively, by a randomised , controlled, double blind study. 70 female non smoking patients scheduled for elective modied radical mastectomy were, allocated randomly into 2 groups . Patients received either Palonosetron 0.075mg (GROUP P ) or ondansetron 8mg ( GROUP O ) intravenously, immediately before induction of general anaesthesia. The occurence of nausea, vomiting, retching, need for rescue antiemetics and side effects were monitored for a period of 24 hours after surgery. The compete response rate and overall PONV for 0 - 24 hours were calculated. The demographic prole of the patients were comparable. The RESULTS : incidence of a complete response (no PONV, no rescue antiemetics ) during 0 - 24 hours in post operative period was signicantly high in GROUP P ( 85.7% vs 62.9%, p=0.02) than GROUP O. The incidence of nausea was signicantly low in GROUP P ( 14.3% vs 37.1%). There was no statistically signicant difference between the 2 groups in vomiting, retching, side effects and need for rescue antiemetics. Thus overall PONV was low in GROUP P (14.3% vs 37.1% p = 0.02 statistically signicant.) We conclude that Palonosetron 0.075mg was more effective for preventing PONV in patients undergoing modied radical mastectomy surgery
