NCT06017167

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to compare antiemetic effects between dexmedetomidine and ondansteron in the first group versus dexamethasone and ondansteron in the second group. The primary outcome in this study is incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The secondary outcomes are:

  • The severity of post operative nausea and vomiting.
  • Use of rescue antiemetic drugs.
  • Postoperative pain and sedation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

    The incidence of vomiting, use of rescue antiemetics, and analgesic requirements were recorded at 0 to 1 hours after surgery in the postanesthetic care unit (PACU)At 6 and 24 hours after surgery, the incidence and severity of PONV were assessed using the Rhodes Index of nausea, vomiting, and retching.

    through out 24 hours after surgery.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • The severity of post operative nausea and vomiting.

    During 24 hours after surgery.

  • - Postoperative pain

    During 24 hours after surgery.

  • - Postoperative sedation

    During 24 hours after surgery.
