OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of diazepam and atropine sulfate premedication in preventing nausea and vomiting after strabismus surgery under general anesthesia.
METHODS
Fifty children age 4 to 15 years who underwent strabismus surgery at Cukurova University Medical Faculty, Department of
We conducted an evaluation of the usefulness of antiemetics (5-Hydroxy-tryptamine 3 receptor antagonism, 5HT3RA) combined with diazepam for delayed nausea and vomiting due to anticancer agents in 17 patients with various malignancies (such as lung Ca, breast Ca, esophagus Ca, gastric Ca, colon Ca,
Oral diazepam is commonly used as a premedicant. For a given dose there is considerable between patient variation in clinical effect and plasma levels. The addition of droperidol may improve consistency and contribute antiemesis whilst avoiding the undesirable effects of droperidol alone. Ninety
We present two cases from a double-blind placebo-controlled study of diazepam in treatment of anxiety that illustrate the importance of attitudes of patients and physicians towards use of diazepam. Patient 1 exhibited symptoms of nausea, depression and increased anxiety, which both he and the
A double-blind random study compared lorazepam with diazepam as i.m. premedicants in 84 healthy women undergoing uterine curettage. Anxiety, assessed by a self-rating test by the patient and by a trained observer, was reduced 90 min after both lorazepam (P less than 0.001) and diazepam (P less than
Diazepam has been used empirically for the relief of vertigo and, in addition, there are animal studies to suggest that this drug suppresses the vestibular system. One might anticipate therefore that diazepam would be an effective antimotion sickness drug. To study this, motion sickness was
Under randomized double-blind conditions, 1.00 to 1.67 mg of intravenous physostigmine (Antilirium) reversed sleep induced by administration of 0.102 to 0.238 mg/kg body weight of intravenous diazepam in eight healthy human volunteers. Awakening occurred 330 to 740s after initiation of the
Sixty female patients were given, in random order, under double-blind conditions, either midazolam or fat-emulsion diazepam, intramuscularly, as premedication, 1 h before general anaesthesia. The dose of midazolam used was 0.13 mg/kg and that of diazepam 0.17 mg/kg. The degree of sedation, mood of
The efficacy of ginger for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting was studied in a double-blind, randomized, controlled trial in 108 ASA 1 or 2 patients undergoing gynaecological laparoscopic surgery under general anaesthesia. Patients received oral placebo, ginger BP 0.5g or ginger BP
The incidence of emetic episodes during the first 24 h after anaesthesia was studied prospectively in 485 children aged 0-16 years in relation to age, premedication, type of induction, type and duration of anaesthesia, type of surgery and use of postoperative analgesics. The incidence of emetic
BACKGROUND
More than half of pregnant women suffer from nausea and vomiting, which typically begins by the fourth week and disappears by the sixteenth week of pregnancy. The cause of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy is unknown, but may be due to the rise in human chorionic gonadotrophin
Friedberg's Triad is (1) measure the brain; (2) preempt the pain; (3) emetic drugs abstain. Persistent anesthesia problems include over- and under-medication, postoperative pain management, and postoperative nausea and vomiting. Inspired by Vinnik's diazepam-ketamine paradigm, Friedberg's propofol
We studied the preventive effect on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) of ondansetron, metoclopramide and placebo associated with epidural anaesthesia. Sixty children, ASA I or II, 4 to 12 yr old underwent surgery for inguinal hernia repair (n = 30) or orchidopexy (n = 30). Children were
Salpingectomy by laparoscopy in 200 healthy outpatients employed local analgesia and "pentazepam" (pentazocine 90 mg and diazepam 30 mg in 250 ml of 5% D/W) as anesthesia. Patients received no premedication, ventilated spontaneously, without tracheal intubation, but were given nasal O2 at 3 L/min
