Abstract
In this editorial, we reviewed the article by Li et al. We aimed to explore various perspectives to further mitigate the risk factors for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), which could significantly reduce its incidence and related postoperative complications. PONV is highly prevalent among patients undergoing bariatric surgery, yet there are relatively few related studies. Currently, the mainstream bariatric surgery methods include laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Despite the effectiveness of surgery in helping patients lose weight, postoperative PONV may occur, potentially leading to various complications (such as aspiration and wound dehiscence). A retrospective study by Li et al has compared the impact of different operative positions during laparoscopic sleeve gastroplasty on the incidence of PONV, providing new insights into the clinical practice aimed at reducing PONV incidence and thereby improving patient's postoperative experience.

J Obstet Gynaecol Res 2024; 50:1216-1228. [PMID: 38644529 DOI: 10.1111/jog.15956] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to develop a web-based dynamic prediction model for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery. METHODS The patients (N = 647) undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery were included in this observational study. The candidate risk-factors related to PONV were included through literature search. Lasso regression was utilized to screen candidate risk-factors, and the variables with statistical significance were selected in multivariable logistic model building. The web-based dynamic Nomogram was used for model exhibition. Accuracy and validity of the experimental model (EM) were evaluated by generating receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and calibration curves. Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to evaluate the goodness of fit of the model. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate the clinical practicability of the risk prediction model. RESULTS Ultimately, a total of five predictors including patient-controlled analgesia (odds ratio [OR], 4.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.98-12.44), motion sickness (OR, 4.80; 95% CI, 2.71-8.65), variation of blood pressure (OR, 4.30; 95% CI, 2.41-7.91), pregnancy vomiting history (OR, 2.21; 95% CI, 1.44-3.43), and pain response (OR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.48-1.83) were selected in model building. Assessment of the model indicates the discriminating power of EM was adequate (ROC-areas under the curve, 93.0%; 95% CI, 90.7%-95.3%). EM showed better accuracy and goodness of fit based on the results of the calibration curve. The DCA curve of EM showed favorable clinical benefits. CONCLUSIONS This dynamic prediction model can determine the PONV risk in patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.

Auricular Acupressure in Relieving PONV and Promoting Gastrointestinal Function Recovery in Females After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial. Obes Surg 2024; 34:2007-2016. [PMID: 38652438 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-024-07243-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2024] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of current pharmacological treatment after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is limited. The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after LSG remains high. Auricular acupressure (AA) is believed to relieve PONV after laparoscopic surgeries, but its role in patients with obesity after LSG has yet to be confirmed. METHODS Ninety-five female patients who underwent LSG were randomized into two groups: AA combined with conventional anti-nausea medication (AA group, 47 patients) or conventional anti-nausea medication group (control group, 48 patients). Index of nausea and vomiting and retching (INVR) scores, postoperative anti-vomiting medication use, time of first anus exhausting, time of first fluid intake, and time of first to get out of bed were collected within 48 h after surgery. RESULTS Demographic data of patients in both groups were balanced and comparable. INVR score (F = 7.505, P = 0.007), vomiting score (F = 11.903, P = 0.001), and retching score (F = 12.098, P = 0.001) were significantly lower in the AA group than that in the control group within 48 h postoperatively. Use of metoclopramide was significantly less in the AA group than in the control group (4.7 [5.5]) vs. 8.8 [7.6], P = 0.004); time to first anus exhausting was significantly less in the AA group than in the control group (17.50 [6.00] vs. 20.42 [8.62], P = 0.020). CONCLUSIONS AA combined with conventional anti-vomiting agents can alleviate PONV in female patients after LSG, and AA can promote gastrointestinal exhaustion. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial has been registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR) with the registration no. ChiCTR2100047381 on June 13, 2021.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various prognostic prediction models exist for evaluating the risk of nausea and vomiting in the postoperative period (PONV). So far, no systematic comparison of these prognostic scores is available. METHOD A systematic literature search was carried out in seven medical databases to find publications on prognostic PONV models. Identified scores were assessed against prospectively defined quality criteria, including generalizability, validation and clinical relevance of the models. RESULTS The literature search revealed 62 relevant publications with a total of 81,834 patients which could be assigned to 8 prognostic models. The simplified Apfel score performed best, primarily because it was extensively validated. The Van den Bosch score and Sinclair score tied for second place. The simplified Koivuranta score was in third place. CONCLUSION The qualitative analysis highlights the strengths and weaknesses of each prediction system based on predetermined standardized quality criteria.

Abstract
Background Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) following atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation can cause considerable distress. Aim Continuous intravenous propofol sedation with adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) with or without an analgesic, pentazocine, during AF ablation was studied in 272 consecutive patients with paroxysmal, persistent, and long-standing persistent AF. The study objectives were to determine the incidence of PONV after AF ablation and to assess the predictive value of factors for PONV using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results The present sedation maneuver was successfully accomplished with a low incidence of hypotension and without discontinuation of ablation or switching to general anesthesia, while maintaining an acceptable procedural time (102 ± 32 min). The incidence of PONV was 5.5% (15/272). Nausea occurred in nine patients after an average of 4.6 ± 3.5 h (range: 2-12 h) postablation, and vomiting with nausea occurred in six patients after an average of 4.5 ± 3.1 h (range: 1-9 h) postablation. The postablation interval did not differ significantly between the occurrence of nausea and nausea accompanied by vomiting. AUCs based on various factors, including the Apfel score, ranged from 0.55 to 0.67, indicating low accuracy in predicting PONV occurrence. Conclusions The incidence of PONV after propofol sedation with ASV was the lowest (5.5%) reported to date. Scoring systems, which included the Apfel score, were ineffective in predicting PONV. The low PONV incidence in addition to the efficacy of propofol sedation with ASV revealed the adequacy of this regimen for AF ablation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative nausea and vomiting are typical postsurgical complications. Drug therapy is only partially effective. The goal of our meta-analysis is to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of electrical acupoint stimulation for postoperative nausea and vomiting and to score the quality of evidence supporting this concept. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched from inception to March 19, 2020. RESULTS Twenty-six studies (2064 patients) were included. Compared with control treatment, electrical acupoint stimulation reduced the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (RR 0.49, 95% CI 0.41 to 0.57, P < 0.001), postoperative nausea (RR 0.55, 95% CI 0.47 to 0.64, P < 0.001) and postoperative vomiting (RR 0.56, 95% CI 0.45 to 0.70, P < 0.001). Electrical acupoint stimulation also reduced the number of patients requiring antiemetic rescue (RR 0.60, 95% CI 0.43 to 0.85, P = 0.004). No differences in adverse events were observed. Subgroup analysis showed that both electroacupuncture (RR 0.58, 95% CI 0.46 to 0.74, P < 0.001) and transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (RR 0.44, 95% CI 0.34 to 0.58, P < 0.001) had significant effects. Electrical acupoint stimulation was effective whether administered preoperatively (RR 0.40, 95% CI 0.27 to 0.60, P < 0.001), postoperatively (RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.46 to 0.76, P < 0.001), or perioperatively (RR 0.50, 95% CI 0.37 to 0.67, P < 0.001). The quality of evidence was moderate to low. CONCLUSIONS Electrical acupoint stimulation probably reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, postoperative nausea, postoperative vomiting, and reduce the number of patients requiring antiemetic rescue, with few adverse events.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Regional analgesia techniques have been increasingly used for post-operative pain management following mastectomy. We aim to evaluate analgesic benefits of pectoral nerve (PECS2) block incorporated as part of the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol in patients undergoing mastectomy in University Malaya Medical Centre, Malaysia. MATERIAL AND METHODS A single centre, cohort study evaluating 335 women who have undergone unilateral mastectomy between January 2017 and March 2020 in Malaysia. Regional anaesthesia were given pre-operatively via ultrasound guided pectoral and intercostal nerves block (PECSII). RESULTS Utilization of regional anaesthesia increased from 11% in 2017 to 43% in 2020. Types and duration of surgeries were comparable. Opiod consumption was 3 mg lower in those who had PECS2 block ((27 [24-30] mg), in comparison with those who received general anaesthesia only (30 [26-34] mg), p < 0.001, and length of stay was half a day shorter in the regional anaesthesia group and these were statistically significant. However, pain score (2 [1-3]; 2 [1-3], p=0.719) and post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) (32.6-32.5%, p = 0.996) were similar. CONCLUSION This study highlights the importance of PECS2 block as a component of ERAS protocol for mastectomy in an Asian hospital. This study also inferred that patients may be safely discharged within 24 h of surgery and therefore, same day surgery may be feasible in selected group of patients undergoing mastectomy and this could imply overall cost benefits.

Abstract
Background Propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is considered a prophylactic approach to decrease postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Despite general anesthesia commonly being performed in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, PONV in ESRD patients has not been well-described. We investigated PONV in peripheral vascular surgery under general anesthesia in ESRD patients. Methods To compare PONV between propofol-based TIVA and anesthesia with volatile anesthetics, we collected retrospective data from patients who underwent peripheral vascular surgery under general anesthesia from July 2018 to April 2020. We performed univariable and multivariable analyses, including factors that could be associated with PONV and those previously shown to affect PONV. Result A total of 1,699 peripheral vascular surgeries under general anesthesia in ESRD patients were eligible for analysis. Based on the multivariable analysis, TIVA (odds ratio [OR], 0.45; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.35-0.60; P < 0.001) significantly decreased PONV. Female sex (OR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.44-2.38; P < 0.001) and anesthetic duration (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.00-1.01; P < 0.001) were associated with increased PONV. Conclusion Propofol-based TIVA is the most influential factor decreasing PONV after peripheral vascular surgery in ESRD patients. Anesthesiologists can apply propofol-based TIVA as an alternative to anesthesia with volatile anesthetics.

Abstract
Pregnant women usually have several risk factors of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and physiologic changes that make them susceptible to PONV development. We investigated the risk of PONV and postoperative vomiting (PV) in pregnant women in nondelivery surgery compared to nonpregnant women. This study included female adult patients who underwent nondelivery surgery at five hospitals between January 2011 and March 2021. To identify the association between pregnancy and PONV, logistic regression was used to calculate the odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals (CIs), adjusting for covariates. A total of 60,656 (nonpregnant women = 57,363 and pregnant women = 3293) complete patient outcomes and perioperative data were eligible for analysis. Although there was no significant association between pregnancy and PONV, the risk of PV in the pregnant women was 3.9-fold higher (95% confidence interval (95% CI), 3.06-4.97) than in the nonpregnant women. In addition, increased pregnancy duration increased the risk of PV (odds ratio (95% CI), 1.05 (1.01-1.09)) and preoperative nausea, and vomiting increased the risk of PONV (odds ratio (95% CI), 2.68 (1.30-5.54)) and PV (odds ratio (95% CI), 4.52 (2.36-8.69)). Pregnancy increased the risk of PV in female patients who underwent nondelivery surgery, and pregnancy duration and preoperative nausea and vomiting also were associated with PONV or PV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status Classification System is commonly used for preoperative assessment. Patient physical status before surgery can play an important role in postoperative nausea and vomiting. However, the relationship between the physical status classification and postoperative nausea and vomiting has not been well defined. METHODS Adults aged ≥ 18 years who underwent procedures under anesthesia between 2015 and 2020 were included in the study. We analyzed the relationship of postoperative nausea and vomiting with physical status classification score using propensity score matching and Cox hazard regression. Differences in intraoperative use of vasopressor and inotropes and invasive monitoring were investigated according to the classification. RESULTS A total of 163,500 patients were included in the study. After matching, classification 1 versus 2 included 43,400 patients; 1 versus ≤ 3, 13,287 patients; 2 versus ≤ 3, 23,530 patients (absolute standardized difference, 0-0.06). Patients with physical status classification ≤ 3 had a significantly lower postoperative nausea and vomiting risk than those with classification 1-2 (physical status classification 1 vs. ≤ 3, hazard ratio 0.76 [0.71-0.82], P < 0.001; 2 versus ≤ 3, hazard ratio 0.86 [0.82-0.91], P < 0.001). Intraoperative use of vasopressor or inotrope and invasive monitoring were noted more in the high physical status classification than the low physical status classification (absolute standardized difference [0.19-1.25]). CONCLUSION There were differences in intraoperative invasive monitoring and use of vasopressor or inotrope among the classifications, and a score of 3 or higher reduced the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting more than a score of 1-2.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Postoperative nausea and vomiting are frequent complications after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Several risk factors have been associated with postoperative nausea and vomiting. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia in a tertiary care centre. METHODS A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among the patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia at a tertiary care centre from 1 July 2021 to 30 April 2022 after receiving ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee (Reference number: 050-077/078). Convenience sampling was done. All the patients received antiemetic prophylaxis with ondansetron. The general anaesthetic technique was standardised in all the patients. They were followed up 24 hours after surgery for an episode of nausea and vomiting. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated. RESULTS Among 200 patients, postoperative nausea and vomiting were seen in 28 (14%) (9.19-18.81, 95% Confidence Interval). Among them, 7 (25%) of the patients experienced post-operative vomiting as well. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of postoperative nausea and vomiting among patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our study was lower when compared to other studies conducted in similar settings.

Abstract
Background Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is an unpleasant and one of the most distressing symptoms for any patient undergoing surgery. The anaesthetist is usually blamed, despite evidence that PONV results from a variety of factors including patient characteristics, anaesthetic techniques, and the type of surgery and post-operative care. This study had been conducted to find out the current prevalence and to assess various risk factors for PONV in the Indian population. Methods All patients above 18 years undergoing non-cardiac surgery under anaesthesia were selected from the daily operation theatre list by a systematic random sampling method. Koivuranta score was used to predict PONV in first 24 h post-operatively. Results Prevalence of PONV in the study population was found to be 25.6%. There was association detected between female gender, non-smokers and occurrence of PONV (CI 95%, p ≤ 0.001, 0.005, respectively). PONV was seen to be more common in patients with history of PONV in prior surgeries, in patients who underwent surgery under general anaesthesia and in patients where opioids were used in the post-operative period (95% CI, p ≤ 0.001, 0.001 and 0.001 respectively). General, laparoscopic, abdominal, orthopaedic, obstetric, breast and urological surgeries showed a significant association with occurrence of PONV (95% CI, p ≤ 0.05). Conclusion Inspite of use of antiemetics (single or dual) being given as part of the institutional protocol, the incidence of PONV was still high. There is a need to update our knowledge regarding newer antiemetics and their inclusion in PONV management guidelines. There is need for further research to study various other possible risk factors which may contribute to occurrence of PONV.

Abstract
Orthognathic surgery is a treatment modality indicated to correct dentofacial deformities. Postoperative vomiting can be associated with multifactorial origin mainly correlated to patient-related symptoms, anaesthetic and surgical factors. Swallowed blood has been related to one of those multifactorial vomiting causes. This present study was to compare the efficacy of gastric aspiration after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. A double blind randomised clinical trial was carried out and patients were divided in two groups (n = 44/39 respectively). There was statistically significant difference between the control and study groups in the overall incidence of vomiting (p = 0.031) A stratified analysis by sex between both groups was performed demonstrating a four-fold eduction in the odds for vomiting events independent of patient gender (OR = 0.24; 95% CI 0.07 to 0.72). Gastric aspiration after orthognathic surgery can reduce the effects of postoperative vomiting decreasing inpatient period and, consequently, hospitalisation costs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of patient and surgical factors, including approach and reconstruction type, on postoperative nausea and vomiting episodes following endoscopic skull base surgery. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review. METHODS We performed a retrospective chart review from July 2018 to August 2020 of 99 consecutive patients undergoing endoscopic skull base surgery at a tertiary academic skull base surgery program. All patients were treated with a standardized postoperative protocol consisting of scheduled ondansetron, along with promethazine and scopolamine for breakthrough nausea and vomiting episodes. Cumulative nausea and vomiting episodes throughout hospital stay were recorded for each patient. RESULTS Of the 99 patients identified, the mean number of nausea and vomiting episodes per patient were 0.4 ± 1.2 and 0.3 ± 0.7, respectively. Female sex (β = .65, P = .034) and extended surgical approach (β = .90, P = .027) were associated with increased risk for postoperative nausea. Furthermore, female sex (β = .44, P = .018), cavernous sinus dissection (β = .52, P = .002), and extended approach (β = .79, P = .025) significantly increased odds of postoperative vomiting episodes. There was no association between total operative time or total postoperative opioid dose and nausea and vomiting episodes (all Ps > .05). Neither increased nausea nor vomiting episodes significantly increased odds of prolonged hospitalization (P = .105 and .164, respectively). CONCLUSION This report highlights novel risk factors for patients undergoing endoscopic skull base surgery. Upfront standing antiemetic therapy may be considered when treating patients with independent predictors of postoperative nausea and vomiting, including female sex, cavernous sinus dissection, and extended surgical approach.

Abstract
Vitreoretinal surgeries require the administration of general anesthesia (GA) in selected groups of patients. The administration of intraoperative rescue narcotic analgesia (IRNA) during GA poses the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). The surgical pleth index (SPI), a crucial component of the adequacy of anesthesia (AoA) guidance of GA, optimizes the intraoperative titration of IRNA. The current analysis evaluated the risk factors for the occurrence of PONV and the oculo-cardiac reflex (OCR) in patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) under AoA guidance. In total, 175 patients undergoing PPV were randomly allocated to receive either GA with SPI-guided IRNA administration using fentanyl alone or in addition to different preoperative analgesia techniques. Any incidence of PONV or OCR was recorded. Obesity, overweight, smoking status, motion sickness, postoperative intolerable pain perception, female gender, fluid challenge and arterial hypertension did not correlate with an increased incidence of PONV or OCR under AoA guidance. Diabetes mellitus, regardless of insulin dependence, was found to correlate with the increased incidence of PONV. The AoA regimen including SPI guidance of IRNA presumably created similar conditions for individual subjects, so no risk factors of the occurrence of PONV or OCR were found, except for diabetes mellitus. We recommend using AoA guidance for GA administration to reduce OCR and PONV rates.

Abstract
The study of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) has been ongoing since the early days of general anesthesia. The search for risk factors of PONV and the development of new agents to treat PONV are the two main strategies to combat the adverse side effects of general anesthesia. Female sex, non-smoking status, a history of PONV/motion sickness, and postoperative opioid use are the four independent risk factors for PONV derived after a series of prospective studies, evidence-based systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. The two frequently asked questions that arise ask whether risk factors apply to different clinical settings and whether prevention measures of PONV can be surgery dependent. We conducted a comprehensive review of 665 patients who underwent primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) between January and December 2019. As nausea is subjective and its measurement is not standardized, postoperative vomiting (POV) was used as a study endpoint. The exclusion criteria were desflurane anesthesia, spinal anesthesia, anesthesia without bispectral index monitoring, and day surgery. Three well-recognized risk factors, consisting of body weight, sevoflurane consumption, and postoperative opioid consumption, were not considered as independent risk factors of POV, while female sex, preoperative adductor canal block (ACB), and dexamethasone were identified as being so in this study. The risk of POV in the female sex was 2.49 times that in the male sex; however, when dexamethasone was used, this risk was reduced by >40% compared with no antiemetic use, and by >50% when patients received preoperative ACB compared with those without the block. The clinical characteristics of our TKA patients—female dominance, old age, and their fairly constant body weights that were distinct from those of other surgical patients—suggested that age may play a crucial role in determining the relative contributions of the different risk factors of POV. We concluded that risk factors of POV are dependent on clinical settings. Based on these results, it is reasonable to speculate that a surgery-dependent plan for the prevention of POV is feasible for patients in similar clinical settings.

Abstract
The prophylaxis and treatment of postoperative pain to enhance patient comfort has been a primary goal of anesthesiologists for the last decades; however, avoiding postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is, from a patient's perspective, a highly relevant and equally important goal of anesthesia. Recent consensus-based guidelines suggest the assessment of risk factors including female gender, postoperative opioid administration, non-smoking status, a history of PONV or motion sickness, young patient age, longer duration of anesthesia, volatile anesthetics and the type of surgery and reducing the patient's baseline risk (e.g. through the use of regional anesthesia and administration of non-opioid analgesics as part of a multimodal approach). In general, a liberal PONV prophylaxis is encouraged for adult patients and children, which should also be administered when no risk assessment is made. The basis for every adult patient should be a standard prophylaxis with two antiemetics, such as dexamethasone in combination with a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. In patients at high risk, this should be supplemented by a third and potentially a fourth antiemetic prophylaxis with a different mechanism of action. A recently published comprehensive Cochrane meta-analysis comparing available antiemetic prophylaxes reported the highest effectiveness to prevent PONV for the NK1 receptor antagonist aprepitant (relative risk, RR 0.26), followed by ramosetron (RR 0.44), granisetron (RR 0.45), dexamethasone (RR 0.51) and ondansetron (RR 0.55), thereby revising the dogma that every antiemetic is equally effective. Adverse events of antiemetics were generally rare and reported in less than half of the included studies, yielding a low quality of evidence for these end points. In general, combinations of different antiemetics were more effective than single prophylaxes. In children above 3 years of age, the same principles should be applied as in adults. For these patients, there is a high degree of evidence for the combination of dexamethasone and 5‑HT3 receptor antagonists. When PONV occurs, the consensus guidelines suggest that antiemetics from a class different than given as prophylaxis should be administered. To decrease the incidence of PONV and increase the quality of care, the importance of the implementation of institutional-level guidelines and protocols as well as assessment of PONV prophylaxis and PONV incidence is highly recommended.

A randomised controlled trial. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 2021; 65:1240-1247. [PMID: 34097759 DOI: 10.1111/aas.13938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2021] [Revised: 05/24/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum seems to be capable of reducing complications such as post-operative pain. However, the quality of evidence supporting this conclusion is low. Both the lack of investigator blinding to both intra-abdominal pressure and to method of neuromuscular blockade represent key sources of bias. Hence, this prospective, randomised, and double-blind study aimed to compare the quality of recovery (Questionnaire QoR-40) of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under low-pressure and standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum. We tested the hypothesis that low pneumoperitoneum pressure enhances the quality of recovery following LC. METHODS Eighty patients who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly divided into two groups, a low-pressure (10 mm Hg) pneumoperitoneum group and a standard-pressure (14 mm Hg) pneumoperitoneum group. For all participants, the value of the insufflation pressure was kept hidden and only the nurse responsible for the operating room was aware of it. Deep neuromuscular blockade was induced for all cases [train-of-four (TOF) = 0; post-tetanic count (PTC) > 0]. The quality of recovery was assessed on the morning of first post-operative day. RESULTS No difference was found in either total score or in its different dimensions according to the QoR-40 questionnaire. The patients in the low-pressure pneumoperitoneum group experienced more pain during forced coughing measured at 4 hours (median difference [95% CI], 1 [0-2]; P = .030), 8 hours (1 [0-2]; P = .030) and 12 hours (0 [0-1] P = .025) after discharge from the post-anaesthesia care unit, when compared with those in the standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum group. CONCLUSION We thus conclude that the use of low-pressure pneumoperitoneum during elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy does not improve the quality of recovery.

J Perianesth Nurs 2021; 36:564-572. [PMID: 34404603 DOI: 10.1016/j.jopan.2020.12.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2020] [Revised: 12/13/2020] [Accepted: 12/26/2020] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture therapy (AT) on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after gynecologic surgery (GS). DESIGN A meta-analysis using a systematic search strategy was performed. METHODS A comprehensive literature search of all published randomized controlled trials or prospective cohort studies assessing the effectiveness of AT on PONV in patients undergoing GS was conducted in three databases: PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library. The incidence of PONV, the use of rescue antiemetics, and side effects of AT were analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 software. FINDINGS Nine randomized controlled trials and one prospective cohort study identified in the literature search from database inception (1966) to December 31, 2019, including 1,075 participants were included in the present study. AT significantly reduced the risk of developing postoperative nausea and postoperative vomiting by 48% (relative risk = 0.52; 95% confidence interval, 0.44 to 0.61; P < .00001) and 42% (relative risk = 0.58; 95% confidence interval, 0.49 to 0.68; P < .00001), respectively. No significant differences in the incidence of side effects such as bleeding and needle pain were observed between groups (P = .54). AT was also associated with a lower rate of rescue antiemetic usage (P < .00001) and a higher degree of satisfaction with postoperative recovery (P < .0001). Moreover, the optimal therapeutic effect of AT on preventing PONV was achieved when the treatment time was controlled within 30 minutes and transcutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation was applied. CONCLUSION AT is an effective and safe physical therapy for the prophylaxis of PONV in patients undergoing GS.

Interpretation of the four risk factors for postoperative nausea and vomiting in the Apfel simplified risk score: an analysis of published studies. Can J Anaesth 2021; 68:1057-1063. [PMID: 33721198 DOI: 10.1007/s12630-021-01974-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2020] [Revised: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 01/11/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The Apfel simplified risk score, developed in 1999, is the most widely used tool for risk stratification of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). It includes four risk factors: female sex, non-smoking status, history of PONV or motion sickness, and use of postoperative opioids. Nevertheless, there is considerable heterogeneity in the definition and application of these risk factors in PONV research. Our aim was to determine how these risk factors are implemented in studies employing the Apfel score. METHODS Citations of the index Apfel score paper between 1 September 1999 and 1 September 2019 were identified in the Scopus database. Original full-text reports in English measuring all four risk factors were eligible for inclusion. Data collected included the definition, timing, and collection method of the four risk factors. RESULTS Of the identified studies, 255 of the 535 reported all four risk factors, with calculated Apfel risk scores reported in 116 of the 255 (46%) papers. Smoking, PONV, motion sickness, and postoperative opioid use were defined in four (2%), zero (0%), one (0.4%), and seven (3%) papers, respectively. Postoperative opioid use was defined as "anticipated" in 138 (54%) studies and "actual" in 72 (18%) studies and was unclear in 45 (28%) studies. CONCLUSIONS Significant variation exists in how the Apfel risk factors are defined and applied in PONV research, particularly with respect to postoperative opioid use. More guidance in the application of this tool may optimize risk estimation and PONV prophylaxis, and potentially improve research quality.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE The 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3B receptor (HTR3B) is involved in postoperative vomiting. We aimed to investigate whether genomic variations of rs1176744 and rs1672717 in HTR3B are associated with postoperative vomiting (POV) in the Chinese Han female population after surgery. METHODS Five hundred and sixty-eight female patients classified as ASA I-II undergoing breast surgery under standard general anaesthesia were enrolled in the study. Episodes of POV in the first 24 h after surgery were recorded. Targeted single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the HTR3B gene were identified by genotyping using the SNPscanTM technique. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to investigate the association between SNPs and POV. RESULTS We eventually analysed 407 subjects undergoing breast surgery under general anaesthesia. Of these, 104(25.6%) patients suffered POV within 24 h after surgery. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, we found that age≥50 years (p = 0.012) and longer duration of surgery (p = 0.019) were independent risk factors for POV. Simultaneously, in the dominant model of rs1672717, compared with the AA genotype, GG+GA carriers suffered more POV (OR=1.669, p = 0.038). However, the use of atropine reduced the incidence of POV in our study (p = 0.019). WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION Our investigation demonstrated that polymorphism of rs1672717 (HTR3B) may be a genetic risk factor for developing POV.

A history of severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy predicts a higher incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting after breast cancer surgery without breast reconstruction. Breast Cancer 2020; 28:506-512. [PMID: 33242108 DOI: 10.1007/s12282-020-01190-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2020] [Accepted: 11/13/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) occur in up to 30 percent of patients after breast cancer surgery despite routine administration of antiemetic prophylaxis. A history of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy (NVP) has been reported as a risk factor of intraoperative nausea and vomiting in caesarean delivery. Nevertheless, whether a history of severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy (SNVP) is associated with a higher occurrence of PONV remains unclear. METHODS In this study, 121 sequential female patients who were scheduled to undergo breast cancer surgery were assigned to study group (30 cases, with SNVP) or control group (91 cases, with mild NVP (MNVP)). The incidence of PONV and the need for rescue antiemetic were recorded in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 36 h after operation. Moreover, postoperative pain, level of satisfaction, and the relationship of ER/PR status in breast cancer tissue with SNVP and PONV were also investigated. RESULTS Data from 115 patients were analyzed. The incidence of PONV in the SNVP group was significantly higher than that in the MNVP group at 6 h (P < 0.005), 12 h (P < 0.05), and 24 h after the operation (P < 0.05). The incidence of PONV in the MNVP group was approximately 30% lower than in the SNVP group. Besides, more severe PONV, a larger number of demands for rescue antiemetic, fewer patient satisfaction scores, and more dizziness were observed in the SNVP group. Yet, no relationship was found between ER/PR status of breast cancer tissue and SNVP or PONV. CONCLUSIONS Compared to patients with MNVP, those with a history of SNVP experienced a higher incidence of PONV and severe PONV, presented with a larger number of requirements for postoperative antiemetic and a lower level of satisfaction.

Abstract
Postdischarge nausea and vomiting (PDNV) occurs in at least 30% of patients leaving hospital, especially after day-case surgery. A significant number of ambulatory patients may develop PDNV associated with the use of analgesics for postsurgical pain. A validated PDNV prediction score and international evidence-based consensus guidelines for PONV/PDNV management are available. High-risk patients benefit from a predischarge PDNV risk assessment and the use of adapted pharmacological intervention (combination of long- and short-acting antiemetics and access to antiemetics at home). Patient education is often overlooked in this context. All clinicians involved in the ambulatory surgery care process should participate in the development of institutional protocol for PONV/PDNV management. Constant quality control and patients' feedback should be integrated as part of an efficient implementation strategy.

Abstract
Background Evidence suggests that a preoperative single-dose steroid improves lung function and decreases the incidence of postoperative symptoms; however, this has not been sufficiently proved in modified radical mastectomy for cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative single-dose steroid administration for postoperative lung function and postoperative symptoms in women undergoing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer. Methods In this controlled clinical trial, conducted between June 2014 and October 2018, we examined 81 patients. Patients received a preoperative single dose of 8 mg dexamethasone (n=41; treatment group) or placebo (sterile injectable water; n=40; control group). We obtained data on postoperative nausea and vomiting and pain intensity and performed spirometry 1 h before and 1, 6, 12, and 24 h after surgery. The use of additional analgesic or antiemetic drugs was recorded. We followed up patients 30 days after discharge and recorded any surgical or medical complications. Results The age distribution and anthropometric variables of the two groups were similar. Almost 50% of the patients in each group also underwent breast reconstruction. In the treatment group, pain intensity was always lower, the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was lower at 6, 12, and 24 h, and additional analgesics or antiemetics were required less frequently (P<0.05 for all). Both treatment and control groups demonstrated a restrictive ventilatory pattern immediately after surgery, which in the treatment group was reversed after 24 h. However, the reconstructed patients had a more intense and prolonged restrictive pattern (P<0.05). Surgical morbidity included one seroma observed in the control group. No infections occurred at the surgical site or at any other level, and no patient developed any metabolic disorder. No mortality was observed in either group. Conclusions This study establishes that a single preoperative dose of dexamethasone markedly decreased the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting and pain, improved respiratory parameters, and decreased the need for additional postoperative analgesic or antiemetic drugs.

Abstract
The impact of migraine on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is controversial, and few studies have focused on their relationship. Thus, we investigated the impact of migraine, among other risk factors, on PONV in a large retrospective study. We analyzed 10 years of clinical data from the Smart Clinical Data Warehouse of Hallym University Medical Center. PONV was defined as nausea or vomiting within the first 24 h after surgery. Patients diagnosed by a neurologist and with a history of triptan use before surgery were enrolled into the migraine group. We enrolled 208,029 patients aged > 18 years who underwent general anesthesia (GA), among whom 19,786 developed PONV within 24 h after GA and 1982 had migraine. Before propensity score matching, the unadjusted and fully adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for PONV in subjects with versus without migraine were 1.52 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.34–1.72; p < 0.001) and 1.37 (95% CI, 1.21–1.56; p < 0.001), respectively. The OR for PONV in patients with migraine was also high (OR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.13–1.66; p = 0.001) after matching. Our findings suggest that migraine is a significant risk factor for PONV.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Opioid-induced ventilatory depression and hypoxemia is common, severe, and often unrecognized in postoperative patients. To the extent that nonopioid analgesics reduce opioid consumption, they may decrease postoperative hypoxemia. OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that duration of hypoxemia is less in patients given intravenous acetaminophen than those given placebo. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial conducted at 2 US academic hospitals among 570 patients who were undergoing abdominal surgery, enrolled from February 2015 through October 2018 and followed up until February 2019. INTERVENTIONS Participants were randomized to receive either intravenous acetaminophen, 1 g (n = 289), or normal saline placebo (n = 291) starting at the beginning of surgery and repeated every 6 hours until 48 postoperative hours or hospital discharge, whichever occurred first. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcome was the total duration of hypoxemia (hemoglobin oxygen saturation [Spo2] <90%) per hour, with oxygen saturation measured continuously for 48 postoperative hours. Secondary outcomes were postoperative opioid consumption, pain (0- 10-point scale; 0: no pain; 10: the most pain imaginable), nausea and vomiting, sedation, minimal alveolar concentration of volatile anesthetic, fatigue, active time, and respiratory function. RESULTS Among 580 patients randomized (mean age, 49 years; 48% women), 570 (98%) completed the trial. The primary outcome, median duration with Spo2 of less than 90%, was 0.7 (interquartile range [IQR], 0.1-5.1) minutes per hour among patients in the acetaminophen group and 1.1 (IQR, 0.1-6.6) minutes per hour among patients in the placebo group (P = .29), with an estimated median difference of -0.04 (95% CI,-0.18 to 0.11) minutes per hour. None of the 8 secondary end points differed significantly between the acetaminophen and placebo groups. Mean pain scores within initial 48 postoperative hours were 4.2 (SD, 1.8) in the acetaminophen group and 4.4 (SD, 1.8) in the placebo group (difference, -0.28; 95% CI, -0.71 to 0.15); median opioid use in morphine equivalents was 50 mg (IQR, 18-122 mg) and 58 mg (IQR, 24-151 mg) , respectively, with a ratio of geometric means of 0.86 (95% CI, 0.61-1.21). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Among patients who underwent abdominal surgery, use of postoperative intravenous acetaminophen, compared with placebo, did not significantly reduce the duration of postoperative hypoxemia over 48 hours. The study findings do not support the use of intravenous acetaminophen for this purpose. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02156154.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is known to occur after bariatric surgery, with over two thirds of patients affected. However, variability exists in how to objectively measure PONV. OBJECTIVES The goals of the present study were to use a validated, patient-centered scoring tool, the Rhodes Index of Nausea, Vomiting, and Retching to measure the severity of PONV after bariatric surgery, to directly compare PONV between patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB), and to identify risk factors for the development of PONV after bariatric surgery. SETTING Barnes-Jewish Hospital/Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri, United States of America. METHODS The Washington University Weight Loss Surgery team prospectively surveyed patients from January 1, 2017 to December 1, 2018 at the following 6 different timepoints: postoperative day (POD) 0, POD 1, POD 2, POD 3 to 4, the first postoperative outpatient visit (POV 1: POD 5-25), and the second postoperative visit (POV 2: POD 25-50). At each timepoint, a cumulative Rhodes score was calculated from the sum of 8 questions. The American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program database was used to collect patient demographic characteristics and perioperative clinical data. RESULTS A total of 274 patients met study criteria and completed 605 Rhodes questionnaires. Two hundred fifty Rhodes questionnaires were completed by patients after SG and 355 were completed by patients after LRYGB. Total Rhodes scores are statistically higher in LSG patients compared with patients who underwent LRYGB (LSG = 5.45 ± 6.27; LRYGB = 3.08 ± 4.19, P = .0002). Additionally, at the earlier timepoints, scores were higher among patients who underwent LSG than those who had undergone LRYGB as follows: POD 0 (LSG = 6.96 ± 6.50; LRYGB = 2.89 ± 2.90, P = .0115), POD 1 (LSG = 8.20 ± 6.76; LRYGB = 2.88 ± 3.44, P < .0001), and POD 2 (LSG = 4.05 ± 4.88; LRYGB = 2.06 ± 3.43, P = .05). On subset analysis, examining patients who either underwent an LSG or LRYGB, both procedures had a statistically significant PONV peak emerge on POV 2. Last, overall Rhodes scores were statistically higher in female patients compared with male patients (female: 4.43 ± 5.46; male: 2.35 ± 3.90, P = .021). Although the magnitude of the difference varied somewhat across POD time intervals, the difference was most pronounced at POV 2. CONCLUSIONS This is the largest study using a validated nausea and vomiting questionnaire to objectively measure PONV after bariatric surgery. The factors found to be most associated with increased PONV were LSG and female sex. Ultimately, these data can help bariatric surgery programs, including Washington University Weight Loss Surgery, identify patients who may require more intensive treatment of PONV, particularly POD 0 to 2, and help to identify patients that continue to struggle with PONV in the later surgical recovery phase.

Abstract
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 at risk for such unpleasant episodes.
Methods The present prospective double-blind randomized study was performed at The Hospital Municipal e Maternidade Dr. Odelmo Leão Carneiro (HMMOLC, in the Portuguese acronym), in Uberlândia, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in partnership with the Gynecology Department of the Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee of UNIFESP and the board of HMMOLC, and included in the Brazil Platform and in the Brazilian Clinical Trial Registry. After signing the consent form, 80 women, who were submitted to gynecological surgery in the period from January to June 2016, were randomized into 2 groups: control group (n = 42) and juice group (n = 38). They received, respectively, 200 mL of inert solution or liquid enriched with carbohydrate and protein 4 hours presurgery. The incidence, frequency and intensity of PONV were studied using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), with statistical analysis performed by the software IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 20.0 (IBM Corp, Armonk, NY, USA).
Results The incidence of nausea and vomiting was lower than in the literature, to this population, with 18.9% (14/74) for the control group and 10.8% (8/74) for the juice group, respectively, with no statistically significant difference between the groups.
Conclusion The incidence of nausea and vomiting was lower than in the literature, but it cannot be said that this is due to the abbreviation of fasting. It can provide greater comfort, with the possibility of PONV prevention in patients at risk for these episodes.

Abstract
The impact of body mass index (BMI) on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is controversial, and few studies have focused on their relationship. We investigated the effects of BMI on PONV, taking into account other PONV risk factors. We analyzed adults over the age of 18 years who received general anesthesia between 2015 and 2019, using propensity score matching. Before propensity score matching, odds ratios (ORs) for PONV were lower for overweight (OR, 0.91; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.87–0.96; p < 0.0001) or obese patients (OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.71–0.84; p < 0.0001) than for normal-BMI patients. After matching, the ORs for PONV of overweight (OR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.80–0.98; p = 0.016) and obese patients (OR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.63–0.79; p < 0.0001) were low. However, the ORs of underweight patients did not differ from those of normal-BMI patients, irrespective of matching. Therefore, the incidence of PONV may be lower among adults with a higher-than-normal BMI.

Abstract
Introduction: Drug utilization research is an important tool to analyze the use of drugs with special emphasis on medical, social, and economic consequences in society. This study aims to find out the utilization of pre-anesthetic medications in a major surgical procedure. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from 15th April - 15th August 2019 in the postoperative ward at Birat Medical College and Teaching Hospital. The convenience sampling method was used after ethical clearance from the Institutional Review Committee (IRC) of Birat Medical College and Teaching Hospital, Biratnagar, Nepal. About 400 patients were studied. The collected data were entered into a statistical package for social science version 20 for further calculations at 95% Confidence Interval. Results: Out of 400 patients, 215 (53.8%) of patients were underwent into different major surgeries. All patients received midazolam 2 mg except children (1 mg) and Pethidine 25 mg along with 0.2 mg glycopyrrolate 352 (88%), ondansetron 276 (69%) and others 58 (14.5%) as a preanesthetic agent. For general anesthesia propofol, 30 mg have been utilized followed by fentanyl 306 (76.5%) and others (halothane, isoflurane, etc) 115 (28.8%). In case of prophylactic drug were ceftriaxone 500 mg, 100 mg metoclopramide 387 (96.8%), dexamethasone 251 (62.8%), tramadol 237 (59.3%), 15 mg ketorolac 368 (92%), ranitidine 163 (40.8%), and pantoprazole 237 (59.3%). Conclusions: The most commonly administered pre-anesthetic drugs were midazolam, pethidine, glycopyrrolate, and ondansetron. The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting the patient within 24 hours after surgery was significantly very low.

Abstract
Patients receiving treatment for a meningioma require anesthesia when undergoing open craniotomy and, in some cases, during preoperative tumor embolization and radiosurgery. Adequate anesthesia management is integral to patients' perioperative care, which consists of the three phases of preoperative assessment and optimization, intraoperative care, and postoperative recovery. The preoperative anesthesia evaluation focusses on the cardiorespiratory and neurologic systems, as well as the airway, but also extends to ensure the optimal treatment of significant comorbidities before surgical intervention. The goals of intraoperative care are maintenance of brain physiology, facilitating surgery, and correcting any adverse effects of surgery and underlying pathology to preserve general patient homeostasis. This requires adequate intraoperative patient monitoring, cardiorespiratory support, management of infusion therapy, and application of knowledge about the effects of anesthetic agents on brain physiology. The anesthesiologist's responsibilities for patient care extend well into the postoperative recovery period, with a focus on pain control, prevention, and treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and, in some patients, intensive care therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both general and spinal anaesthesia with short-acting local anaesthetics are suitable and reliable for knee arthroscopy as an ambulatory procedure. Chloroprocaine (CP) 1% seems to be the ideal spinal local anaesthetic for this indication. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare spinal anaesthesia using CP 1% with general for outpatient knee arthroscopy with regard to procedure times, occurrence of pain, patient satisfaction and recovery, and also costs. DESIGN A randomised controlled single-centre trial. SETTING University Medical Centre Mannheim, Department of Anaesthesiology and Surgical Intensive Care Medicine, Mannheim, Germany. April 2014 to August 2015. PATIENTS A total of 50 patients (women/men, 18 to 80 years old, ASA I to III) undergoing outpatient knee arthroscopy were included. A contra-indication to an allocated anaesthetic technique or an allergy to medication required in the protocol led to exclusion. INTERVENTIONS Either general anaesthesia with sufentanil, propofol and a laryngeal mask for airway-management or spinal with 40-mg CP 1% were used. We noted procedure times, patient satisfaction/recovery and conducted a 7-day follow-up. MAIN OUTOMES Primary outcome was duration of stay in the day-surgery centre. Secondary outcomes were first occurrence of pain, patient satisfaction, quality of recovery and adverse effects. In addition, we analysed treatment costs. RESULTS Spinal had faster recovery than general anaesthesia with patients reaching discharge criteria significantly earlier [117 min (66 to 167) versus 142 min (82 to 228), P = 0.0047]. Pain occurred significantly earlier in the general anaesthesia group (P = 0.0072). Costs were less with spinal anaesthesia (cost ratio spinal: general 0.57). Patients felt significantly more uncomfortable after general anaesthesia (P = 0.0096). CONCLUSION Spinal anaesthesia with 40-mg CP 1% leads to a significantly earlier discharge and is cheaper compared with general.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pain remains a major challenge following immediate breast reconstruction with 40% of patients experiencing acute pain and up to 60% developing chronic pain. Paravertebral blocks (PVB's) have emerged as a promising adjunct to standard analgesic protocols. The aim of this study was to assess the utility of PVB's in immediate breast reconstruction following mastectomy. METHODS A retrospective review of patients undergoing immediate breast reconstruction following mastectomy was performed. The primary outcome was postoperative pain measured by total oral morphine equivalent usage and self reported pain scores and secondary outcomes were length of stay in the PACU, complications, and OR delay. RESULTS Of 298 patients undergoing immediate breast reconstruction, 112(38%) underwent standard analgesic protocols and 186(62%) underwent PVB in addition to the standard protocol. PVB's were associated with reductions in average postoperative pain scores (2.8 vs 3.3, P = 0.002), total opiate consumption (52 units vs 63 units, P = 0.038) and time spent in the PACU 92 vs 142 minutes, P = 0.0228) compared to patients who had general anesthesia alone. The overall complication rate was 3.7% (7/186 patients), all which were minor complications such as headache, bloody tap, vasovagal episode and temporary weakness. The use of PVBs delayed the OR start time on average by 15 minutes (34 vs 49 minutes). CONCLUSIONS The present study offers one of the largest retrospective cohort studies to date evaluating the utility of PVB's in immediate breast reconstruction following mastectomy. We demonstrate that, PVB's in immediate breast reconstruction are associated with reductions in postoperative pain, narcotic usage and length of stay in PACU, but are associated with delays to the start time of the case. Anesthesiologists, plastic surgeons and hospital administrators must continue to work together to ensure this important and necessary service is administered in an efficient and cost effective manner.

Epidural Nerve Blocks Increase Intraoperative Vasopressor Consumption and Delay Surgical Start Time in Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Free Flap Breast Reconstruction. PLASTIC AND RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGERY-GLOBAL OPEN 2019; 7:e2105.

Abstract
Background: Epidural nerve blocks (EA) have been widely used in abdominal and thoracic surgery as an adjunct to general anesthesia (GA). The role for EA in microsurgical free flap breast reconstruction remains unclear with concerns regarding its impact on flap survival and operating room efficiency. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of epidural blocks in patients undergoing deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction. Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients undergoing DIEP breast reconstruction under GA alone was compared with those receiving EA/GA. Electronic records were analyzed for patient demographics, intraoperative data, and postoperative outcomes. The primary outcome was 48-hour narcotic usage and secondary outcomes were intraoperative vasopressor consumption, surgical delay, and safety profile. Results: Sixty-one patients underwent DIEP reconstruction, 46 (75%) underwent EA/GA and 15 (25%) underwent GA alone. Epidural blocks were associated with a significant delay in operating room start time (67.8 min versus 45.6 min; P = 0.0004.) Patients in the EA/GA group also had a significant increase in vasopressor use (n = 38 versus n = 8; P = 0.037); however, there was no difference in flap complication rate [1 (2%) versus 2 (13%); P = 0.15]. Postoperatively, patients who received an epidural block had a reduced average pain score (1.1 versus 2.2; P = 0.0235), but there was no difference in 48-hour narcotic usage. Conclusions: Although epidural blocks reduce postoperative pain following DIEP flap breast reconstruction, they increase intraoperative vasopressor use and delay the start time of the case. Further studies are required to elucidate whether the benefits of improved pain control outweigh the potential risk for increased surgical complications and increased health care costs.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES There is growing evidence internationally to support Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathways. The impact of pathway compliance and the relative importance of individual components, however, remains less clear. Our institution implemented a multimodal ERAS protocol for elective colorectal surgery in November 2013. The objectives of this study were to investigate the impact of the introduction of the pathway, the relationship between pathway adherence and patient outcomes, and the relative importance of individual components. DESIGN This was a single-center, observational cohort study of elective colorectal surgical patients. SETTING A tertiary care and academic teaching hospital in Canada. PATIENTS Prospective data was collected from 495 consecutive major colorectal surgical patients following the ERAS launch. Retrospective data was also collected from a pre-ERAS cohort of 99. MEASUREMENTS Adherence to 12 ERAS components were measured, along with American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP®) defined patient complications and hospital length of stay (LOS). Post-ERAS patients were divided in to two groups: high compliance (≥75% process adherence) and low compliance (<75% adherence). Outcomes were compared between groups. MAIN RESULTS There was a significant reduction in both complication rate (31.5% vs 14.6%; p ≤0.05) and hospital mean LOS (10.1 vs 6.9 days; p ≤0.05) following introduction of the ERAS pathway. The high adherence group had a shorter mean LOS (5.7 vs 8.6 days; p ≤0.01) and lower rate of complications (11.2% vs 19.6%; p = 0.02) compared with the low compliance group. CONCLUSIONS Higher adherence to the standardized ERAS protocol was associated with improved patient outcomes, including reduced pulmonary complications. The cause-effect relationship is complex and likely influenced by confounding factors. Our data provides feedback to aid ongoing innovation of our pathway locally and adds to the growing body of evidence supporting the value of ERAS in general.

Abstract
Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols consist of a set of perioperative measures aimed at improving patient recovery and decreasing length of stay and postoperative complications. We assess the implementation and outcomes of an ERAS program for colorectal surgery. Methods Single center observational study. Data were collected from consecutive patients undergoing open or laparoscopic colorectal surgery during 2 time periods, 3 years before (Pre-ERAS) and 2 years after (Post-ERAS) the implementation of an ERAS protocol. Baseline characteristics of both groups were compared. The primary outcome was the number of patients with 180 days follow-up with moderate or severe complications; secondary outcomes were postoperative length of stay, and specific complications. Data were extracted from patient records. Results There were 360 patients in the Pre-ERAS group and 319 patients in the Post-ERAS Group. 214 (59.8%) patients developed at least one complication in the pre ERAS group, versus 163 patients in the Post-ERAS group (51.10%). More patients in the Pre-ERAS group developed moderate or severe complications (31.9% vs. 22.26%, p = 0.009); and severe complications (15.5% vs. 5.3%; p < 0.0001). The median length of stay was 13 (17) days in Pre-ERAS Group and 11 (10) days in the Post-ERAS Group (p = 0.034). No differences were found on mortality rates (4.7% vs. 2.5%; p = 0.154), or readmission (6.39% vs. 4.39%; p = 0.31). Overall ERAS protocol compliance in the Post-ERAS cohort was 88%. Conclusions The implementation of ERAS protocol for colorectal surgery was associated with a significantly reduction of postoperative complications and length of stay.

Abstract
PURPOSE Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and post-discharge nausea and vomiting (PDNV) continue to be common and disturbing complications experienced after surgery, particularly in women and especially in women undergoing breast cancer surgery. The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence and risk factors associated with PONV and PDNV from preoperative to 48 hours postoperatively in 97 women scheduled for breast cancer surgery. DESIGN Prospective, comparative design. METHODS After informed consent was obtained, women scheduled for breast cancer surgery were evaluated for incidence of vomiting, as well as the presence and severity of nausea from the preoperative holding area for 48 hours following surgery. Vomiting was assessed as both a nominally scaled, binary variable (Yes/No) and as a continuous variable to measure separate emetic events. Nausea was measured on an 11point verbal numeric scale with 0 being the absence of nausea and 10 representing the highest level of nausea ever experienced. RESULTS Twenty-nine (29.8%) women experienced nausea, and nine (9%) women experienced nausea and vomiting while in the post-anesthesia care unit despite close attention to the need for prophylactic antiemetic medications. Women who experienced PONV had higher levels of pain and received more opioids than those women who did not experience PONV. Women who received intravenous acetaminophen did not experience less PONV in this study. PDNV occurred more frequently than PONV, with 34 women (35%) reporting occurrence after discharge. About 13 women who did not experience PONV while in the PACU subsequently experienced PDNV after leaving the hospital, evidence for the importance of patient discharge teaching regarding these symptoms. Although clinical guidelines are necessary, our observation is that nurses in the PACU setting continuously challenge themselves to individualize the combination of medications and activities for each patient to reduce PONV after surgery.

Abstract
The objective was to evaluate whether preoperative administration of dexamethasone improved postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), pain and respiratory function tests in women undergoing conservative surgery for breast cancer. This was a controlled clinical trial conducted between June 2013 and October 2014. Eighty patients were evaluated. Patients received a preoperative dose of 8 mg of dexamethasone (n = 40) or placebo (n = 40). The data on PONV and pain intensity was obtained and forced spirometry tests were performed, 1 hr before and at 1, 6, 12 and 24 hr after surgery. Any use of additional analgesic/antiemetic drugs was recorded. Patients were followed until 30 days after surgery for any surgical or medical complications. The pain intensity was lower in the treatment group for all periods; PONV was lower at 6, 12 and 24 hr; Additional analgesics/antiemetics were required less frequently (all p < .05). Both groups exhibited a restrictive ventilatory pattern immediately after surgery, which was reversed in the following hours. However, spirometric values were higher in the dexamethasone group. There were no pulmonary or metabolic complications after surgery. Our conclusions were that dexamethasone significantly reduced the incidences of PONV, pain and improved respiratory parameters, and reduced the need for additional postoperative analgesic and antiemetic drugs.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was to identify factors affecting postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and to investigate the incidence of PONV for the first 24 hours after operation. DESIGN The prospective research was performed in an 1,100-bed university hospital, from April to December, 2011. The sample consisted of 609 patients with elective surgery. METHODS Factors affecting PONV were identified by multiple logistic regression. FINDINGS Incidence of PONV was 27.1% for the first postoperative 24 hours. Insertion of nasogastric tube (OR, 4.54, P = .002), history of PONV (OR, 3.24, P < .001), general anesthesia (OR, 2.76, P = .002), history of motion sickness (OR, 2.33, P < .001), and female sex (OR, 2.05, P = .004) were high risk factors of PONV. The nonadministration of antiemetics during operation (OR, 1.70, P = .014) and nonuse of intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (OR, 1.54, P = .038) increased PONV during the first postoperative 24 hours. CONCLUSIONS Patients of female gender, history of motion sickness and PONV, general anesthesia, and nasogastric insertion are more likely to experience PONV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a frequent complication in postoperative period. The aim of this article was to evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on PONV. METHOD RevMan 5.3 software was applied for performing statistic analysis. Twenty-four trials with 2046 patients were included. RESULTS The PONV of the dexmedetomidine group was significantly lower compared with the placebo group (0.56, 95% CI: 0.46, 0.69). Subgroup analysis further confirmed the effect of dexmedetomidine (irrespective of administration mode) (P < 0.00001). Perioperative fentanyl consumption in dexmedetomidine group were also reduced significantly (P < 0.00001). Whereas, side effects such as bradycardia, hypotension increased in dexmedetomidine group (especially in loading dose mode and loading dose plus continuous infusion mode). CONCLUSIONS Dexmedetomidine administrated in continuous infusion mode has the advantage to prevent PONV as well as reduce side effects such as bradycardia and hypotension.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common complications in patients undergoing gynaecological surgeries under spinal anaesthesia (SA). Palonosetron has the unique property of controlling 'delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting' when compared to older serotonin antagonists. This study compared the effectiveness of palonosetron with a combination of ramosetron and dexamethasone in preventing PONV. Methods: Sixty patients undergoing gynaecological surgeries under SA were randomly allocated into two groups of thirty each, to receive either a combination of 0.3 mg of ramosetron and 8 mg of dexamethasone intravenously (IV) (Group RD) or 0.075 mg of palonosetron IV (Group P). The incidence of PONV, number of complete responders (no nausea, vomiting or use of rescue anti-emetics) and severity of nausea were evaluated during intra- and post-operative period. Results: The incidence of complete responders during intraoperative period was 80.0% in Group RD and 76.7% in Group P (P = 0.074) whereas postoperatively at 0–2 h and 2–6 h, it was 73.3% and 83.3% in Group RD respectively as compared to 46.6% and 56.6% in Group P respectively (P = 0.016 and P = 0.024). The incidence of PONV during 24 h of post-operative period was 30.00% in Group RD as compared to 60.00% in Group P (P = 0.0195). Nausea severity score and use of rescue anti-emetics did not vary between the groups. Conclusion: Combination of ramosetron and dexamethasone is more effective than palonosetron alone in preventing PONV in patients undergoing gynaecological surgeries under SA.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Post-operative vomiting (POV) in children remains a significant clinical problem. This prospective study aims to investigate the applicability of well-established adult early post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) risk factors on paediatric POV after adenotonsillectomies under regulated anaesthetic conditions. Methods: After Institutional Review Board approval, 213 children aged 3–10-year-old were enrolled. The participants had pre-operative questionnaires completed, followed protocolised anaesthetic plans and had saliva analysed for cotinine. The primary outcomes were POV as correlated with age, gender, family or personal history of PONV, motion sickness history, opioid use, surgical time, anaesthetic time and environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure, as assessed by cotinine levels and questionnaire reports. Data on analgesics, antiemetics and POV incidence before post-anaesthesia care unit discharge were collected. Statistical analysis was done through multiple logistic regression. Results: A total of 200 patients finalised the study. Early POV occurred in 32%. Family history of PONV (odds ratio [OR] = 5.3, P < 0.01) and motion sickness history (OR = 4.4, P = 0.02) were highly significant risk factors. Age reached borderline statistical significance (OR = 1.4, P = 0.05). None of the other factors reached statistical significance. Conclusion: Early POV occurs frequently in paediatric patients undergoing adenotonsillectomies. In this paediatric-aged group, the incidence of POV was affected by the family history of PONV, and history of motion sickness. Age, female gender, opioid use, surgical and anaesthetic times did not affect the incidence of POV. ETS exposure, as assessed by cotinine levels and questionnaire reports, had no protective effect on early paediatric POV.
