BACKGROUND
Aprepitant blocks the emetic effects of substance P. Scopolamine antagonizes muscarinic type 1 and histamine type 1 receptors. This study compares monotherapy and multimodal therapy by looking at complete response, nausea, vomiting, and rescue medication in patients at high risk for
The authors evaluated the effect of transdermal scopolamine on the incidence of postoperative nausea, retching, and vomiting after outpatient laparoscopy in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. A Band-Aid-like patch containing either scopolamine or placebo was placed behind the ear the night
To evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic transdermal scopolamine in reducing nausea associated with postoperative epidural analgesia, we studied 32 healthy adult women undergoing major gynecologic surgery. The patients were randomized in a double blind fashion to receive either a cutaneous
Nausea affects from 40% to 70% of cancer patients who received narcotics to manage their pain. This occurs more frequently when they are ambulatory than when they are recumbent and may be the result of narcotic-enhanced labyrinthine sensitivity to motion. Scopolamine has previously been found to be
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common and undesirable complaints recorded in as many as 70-80% of high-risk surgical patients. The current prophylactic therapy recommendations for PONV management stated in the Society of Ambulatory Anesthesia (SAMBA) guidelines should
Scopolamine, applicable without severe side effects as a transdermal therapeutic system (TTS), has a pronounced postoperative antiemetic effect. In one publication there was found even a 50% reduction of emetic symptoms compared with placebo. In this study TTS-Scopolamine was compared with a single
A randomized double-blind clinically controlled investigation with a placebo was undertaken to investigate the prophylactic effect of transdermal scopolamine on postoperative nausea and vomiting after dilatation and curettage and termination of pregnancy. No significant difference was found between
OBJECTIVE
To determine the efficacy of scopolamine administered transdermally before laparoscopic cholecystectomy as a means of reducing postoperative nausea and vomiting.
METHODS
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
METHODS
A tertiary-care, university-affiliated hospital.

Specific risk factors place patients at greater risk for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Routinely, these patients are treated prophylactically with intravenous (IV) ondansetron or transdermal (TD) scopolamine. No study has examined what effect using a combination of these prophylactic
We evaluated the effect of transdermal scopolamine on the incidence of postoperative nausea and vertigo after outpatient ear surgery (exploratory tympanotomy, mastoidectomy, or endolymphatic sac and oval and round window surgery) in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. A transdermal patch
Since transdermal scopolamine (TS) seems effective against seasickness, we compared its antiemetic effect with intravenous droperidol (DHBP), our routine antidote for postoperative emesis. Ninety-six female patients (ASA I-II) scheduled for short-stay surgery were randomly allocated to three study
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether postoperative pain and nausea after laparoscopic sterilization can be reduced with a combination of bupivacaine, metoclopramide, scopolamine, ketorolac, and gastric suctioning.
METHODS
Women undergoing outpatient laparoscopic sterilization were randomized to protocol
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a relatively common occurrence (20-30%) that delays discharge and, if persistent, can lead to serious complications. The incidence of PONV is a function of patient characteristics, the type and duration of surgery, the type of anesthesia, and the choice of
The authors evaluated the antiemetic properties of transdermal scopolamine (TDS) in healthy patients undergoing elective cesarean section and receiving epidural morphine for postoperative analgesia. Prior to administration of anesthesia, 203 patients had either TDS or a placebo study patch applied
Background: We performed this prospective double-blind randomized controlled trial to identify the effect of a preoperative prophylactic transdermal scopolamine (TDS) patch on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after retromastoid craniectomy with microvascular decompression (RMC-MVD).
