Introduction: We evaluated whether preoperative carbohydrate drink would be able to decrease postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and improve the quality of recovery (QoR) in diabetic patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
BACKGROUND
A carbohydrate-rich drink (CHO) has been shown to reduce preoperative discomfort. It was hypothesized that it may also reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).
METHODS
Patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy under inhalational anaesthesia (127 women and 45 men;
BACKGROUND
Preoperative oral carbohydrate (CHO) drink may improve patients' comfort. However, whether it prevents or reduces postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is questionable.
OBJECTIVE
Evaluate the effect of oral rehydration with 10% CHO drink before anesthesia on incidence and severity of
BACKGROUND
The aim of this prospective, randomized, single-blinded study was to compare the effects of a carbohydrate drink 400 mL given 2 h before the surgery with preoperative overnight fasting on the gastric pH and residual volume, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and antiemetic
BACKGROUND
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are common adverse events following surgery and anaesthesia. The reported incidence is particularly high in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery, ranging from 40-77%. PONV can be very distressing for patients and can result in unplanned
To determine if carbohydrates perfused into the ileum affect gastric emptying and circulating levels of gastrointestinal hormones, 18 healthy subjects were intubated with an oroileal tube. A 400-cal (60% carbohydrate, 20% protein, 20% fat) homogenized meal labeled with 111In-DTPA was then infused
Empagliflozin reduces blood glucose levels independently of insulin secretion by reducing glucose reabsorption in the proximal renal tubules through inhibition of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2). Because SGLT2 inhibitors have a different mechanism of action to conventional antidiabetic drugs,
Pre-operative carbohydrate loading has been shown to reduce pre-operative discomfort and postoperative nausea and vomiting in general surgical patients. Few studies have considered day-case surgery.The aim of this prospective randomised study was to The nausea and vomiting that often accompany early pregnancy may be ameliorated if the patient eats small portions of food at frequent intervals, increases the amount of carbohydrates and decreases the amount of fat, and avoids bothersome food odors. When these strategies fail, antiemetic drugs such
The serotonin selective reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) have clinically and ancedotally been associated with nausea and weight loss as a side effect of their action. The tricyclic antidepressants have been linked to carbohydrate (CHO) craving and weight gain in patients with major depressive disorders.
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
