<p><strong>Background</strong>: Posotoprative nausea and vomiting remains a persistent and distressing problem inspite of many advances on perioperative care and anti-emetic drugs. A newer antiemetic drug Granisetron has not been studied in patients undergoing gynaecological surgery under spinal anaesthesia.</p><p><strong>Objective</strong>: A randomized double blind study was conducted to compare Ondansetron and Granisetron for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing gynaecological surgery under spinal anaesthesia.</p><p><strong>Material and methods</strong>: 60 consecutive patients, age between 20-65 years, ASA grade I and II undergoing gynaeacologicla surgery under spinal anaesthesia were randomized into two goups of 30 each. One group received intravenous Ondansetron 4.0 mg and the second received intravenous Granisetron 2.0 mg 5 minutes before induction of anaesthesia. For the first 24 hours postoperatively all episodes of nausea and vomiting were recorded. A complete response to the drug was considered if there was no nausea or vomiting and no need for rescue anti-emetic. The observations were tabulated and analysed.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>: During early postoperative period (0-3 hrs) there was statistically no significant difference in the study groups. Statistically significant difference was found in the study groups in the late postoperative period (3-24 hrs).</p><p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: In the early postoperative period both Ondansetron and Granisetron are equally effective in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing gynaecological surgery under spinal anaesthesia. Granisetron is better than Ondansetron in the late postoperative period of upto 24 hrs.</p>

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.
