BACKGROUND Although efficacy of aprepitant for suppressing emesis associated with single-dose cisplatin has been demonstrated, there are limited data on the antiemetic effect of this oral neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist during daily administration of cisplatin. Accordingly, we investigated the efficacy and safety of aprepitant in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) receiving combination t...
BACKGROUND Cannabinoid receptor agonists reverse nausea and vomiting produced by chemotherapy and radiation therapy in animals and humans but have not been tested against opioid-induced emesis. This study tests the hypothesis that cannabinoid receptor agonists will prevent opioid-induced vomiting. METHODS Twelve male ferrets were used. They weighed 1.2-1.6 kg at the beginning and 1.8-2.3 kg a...
BACKGROUND This study was designed to examine the analgesic and dose-related antiemetic efficacy of diphenhydramine-morphine mixture for intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA). METHODS Healthy women, undergoing abdominal total hysterectomy were recruited to this double-blinded randomized placebo-controlled study. Patients were randomly allocated to one of three groups (n=40 each). In ...
Improved understanding of the physiologic and neuropharmacologic mechanisms underlying chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) has driven significant progress in the treatment of CINV over the past 2 decades. Recognition of the role of neurotransmitters and their receptors in the process of CINV has been central to this progress. Initial attention focused on dopamine, then on serotonin,...
It is important to prevent nausea and vomiting to maintain both the quality of life of patients with cancer and the efficacy of chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy of aprepitant for treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in Japanese patients with gastrointestinal cancer receiving highly or moderately emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC or MEC) regimens...
BACKGROUND Nausea and vomiting are frequently seen in patients undergoing cesarean section (CS) under regional anesthesia. We aimed to compare the antiemetic efficacy of ondansetron and dexamethasone combination with that of the use of each agent alone to decrease the incidence of post-delivery intraoperative nausea and vomiting (IONV) during CS under spinal anesthesia. OBJECTIVE To compare t...
An antiemetic action is claimed among other uses for acupuncture (ACP), and several antiemetic ACP points are described in textbooks. The most accessible of these is P6, so called because it is on the pericardial meridian. This is also known as Neiguan (Nei-kuan) or G-Jo point no. 10, and the simplest description of locating it is the width of two thumbs above the distal crease on the inner wri...
PURPOSE To determine whether low doses of droperidol mixed with morphine in patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) would extend the duration of prophylaxis against postoperative nausea and vomiting. METHODS Healthy women having elective open-abdominal gynaecological surgery consented to this double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Subjects were randomized to receive placebo, or 1 mg droperidol be...
BACKGROUND To reduce side-effects of corticosteroid-containing antiemetic regimens, tailoring antiemetic schedules to specific requirements of different patients could be of benefit. We evaluated the possibility to reduce the total dose of corticosteroids when palonosetron, a long-acting second-generation 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 (5-HT(3)) receptor antagonist, is used. MATERIALS AND METHODS Doub...
PURPOSE To provide evidence-based guidelines for the prophylaxis and treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). SOURCE Literature from randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, logistic regression analyses and expert opinion in the management of PONV. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS The etiology of PONV is multifactorial. Patient, anesthesia, and surgery related risk factors have bee...
