Background: Although PONV is usually self-limiting or is treated without sequelae, the incidence of PONV could be as high as 70% to 80% in high-risk populations such as female sex, obese patients, age younger than 40 years, nonsmoker patients, history of PONV or motion sickness. Objectives: The study aimed to investigate whether dextrose 10% decreases the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in female patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy Materials and Methods: This prospective, double-blind randomized placebo-controlled study comprised 130 ASA physical status I and II nonsmoker female patients, 20-40 years of age, scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Ain Sham University – Assembled operating theater from August 2018 to October 2018. Patients were arbitrarily divided into two study groups of 65 patients each. Group LR received lactated Ringer’s solution and group D received 10% dextrose. The primary objective of this study was to compare the incidence of PONV in the study treatment groups. The secondary outcomes included measurement of antiemetic medication consumption as well as blood glucose changes between groups. Results: 50 from a total of 65 participants (76.9%) in Lactated Ringer (LR) group experienced nausea. On the other hand, 30 participants only (46.2%) in dextrose (D) group were nauseated. This dissimilarity was statistically highly significant (P= 0.0003). Conclusion: In this study, dextrose 10% administration resulted in improved postoperative emesis management as explained by the lower incidence of nausea and rescue antiemetic consumption.

Piritramide is a synthetic analgesic of the piperidine group. Reports indicate that it is a potent, long-acting drug and that the incidence of nausea and vomiting following its administration is very low. In this series of 60 cases piritramide 15 mg was compared with morphine 10 mg in a double-blind trial. The drug was found to have a potency similar to that of morphine and a mean duration of action of greater than 6½ hours (morphine 4 ½ hours). The incidence of nausea and vomiting was low with both drugs and piritramide appeared to exert a slight anti-emetic effect.
