A double-blind randomized study was performed in 100 patients undergoing thyroidectomy to evaluate the effect of positive therapeutic suggestions made during neurolept-anaesthesia. The classic droperidol-fentanyl-N2O technique was used as these drugs preserve the neurophysiological functions

The relationship between muscular tissue oxygen saturation (SmtO2) during surgery and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) remains to be determined. Patients undergoing robotic hysterectomy participated in this prospective cohort study. SmtO2 of the brachioradialis muscle in the forearm was

BACKGROUND In a large cluster-randomized trial on the impact of a prediction model, presenting the calculated risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) on-screen (assistive approach) increased the administration of risk-dependent PONV prophylaxis by anaesthetists. This change in therapeutic

OBJECTIVE To evaluate in high-risk patients and in usual clinical conditions, the efficiency of treatments based on an algorithm on late (24 h) postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). METHODS Prospective and descriptive. METHODS The nature and efficiency of prophylactic and curative PONV

OBJECTIVE To observe therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined with antiemetic on cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting. METHODS By using paired, cross-controlled trial design, 66 cases of chemotherapy were divided into group A and B, 33 cases in each group. For the group A, chemotherapy,

Most incidences of nausea and vomiting can be avoided by careful movement of the patient from a supine position to walking, sound hemostatic principles, and prudent postoperative medication prescribing habits. However, when therapeutic intervention becomes necessary, the clinician should ascertain

The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) remains one of the most common complications after general anesthesia. The causes of PONV are multimodal, involving several physiologic pathways that stimulate the vomiting center, including the chemoreceptor trigger zone, the

With 80% of pregnant women suffering from some degree of "morning sickness," or nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP), symptom management is a major challenge. A recent Cochrane systematic review of randomized controlled trials concluded that, to date, there is no strong evidence of effectiveness

OBJECTIVE Therapeutic touch (TT) is independent nursing intervention which is effective on nausea induced by chemotherapy but technique, steps and variables affected by this therapy are not yet well known. The aim of this study was to elicit descriptions of how TT is used with cancer patients,

BACKGROUND Nausea is the worst and most prevalent chemotherapy-induced complication experienced by 70-80% of patients despite mediation therapy. Reduction of nausea is one of the most important roles of oncologist nurses. Today, complementary therapies in addition to classic medicine, because of

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) continues to be a common symptom experienced by children undergoing cancer treatment despite the use of contemporary antiemetics. Integrative therapeutic approaches in addition to standard pharmacologic antiemetic regimes offer potential to control

BACKGROUND Patients with cancer commonly experience disease or treatment side effects, including pain, fatigue, nausea, and anxiety. An expanding body of literature supports the use of therapeutic massage (TM) as an adjunct to conventional therapies to manage these side effects. OBJECTIVE This

Even with the development of the serotonin 5-HT(3) receptor antagonists in recent years, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) remains a significant concern for clinicians and patients. For the selection of an appropriate antiemetic strategy for PONV, economic considerations should be taken into

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains one of the most challenging adverse events of chemotherapy, and one that has substantial negative effects on patients, clinicians, and the wider health care system. Use of CINV prophylaxis consistent with clinical practice guidelines is

Introduction: Current therapies of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are based on a combination of antiemetics from different pharmacological classes. Dopamine receptor antagonists are one of the cornerstones of such multimodal antiemetic approach, with droperidol being the best
