NCT02457195

Brief Summary

The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding transdermal preparation of granisetron (Sancuso ®) to the current postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) standard prophylaxis regimen with dexamethasone and ondansetron in patients with the previous history of severe, particularly delayed and/or post-discharge, PONV and undergoing surgical procedure under general anesthesia. The specific aims of the study include:

  1. 1.efficacy of the investigated therapy in prevention of PONV up to 120 hours after surgery
  2. 2.incidence and seriousness of the observed side effects
  3. 3.ability of patients to self-administer preoperatively and maintain the investigated patch during the perioperative period
  4. 4.level of satisfaction with the preoperative PONV prophylaxis.
