BACKGROUND
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common complication after pediatric strabismus surgery. Steroids and ondansetron (a 5-HT3 antagonist) can effectively reduce nausea, vomiting, and pain and thus might be useful agents for the prevention of PONV in pediatric patients. The aim
OBJECTIVE
To compare the efficacy of combination of dexamethasone plus ondansetron with dexamethasone alone for postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
METHODS
Double blinded randomized controlled clinical trial.
METHODS
Department of Anaesthesiology,
The so-called Oriental flushing reaction associated with ingestion of small amounts of alcohol was antagonized by combined antihistamine administration. In stage one of the study, the flushing reaction to low doses of alcohol was produced in Orientals. Most subjects experienced a cutaneous flush, an
We prospectively studied, how certain patient characteristics modify the risk of chemotherapy induced and conditioned nausea and vomiting. Young age and previous history of nausea and vomiting were factors associated with both chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting as well as conditioned nausea.

Individuals with an inactive acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 have an. elevated level of serum acetaldehyde after drinking alcohol, and this may cause an alcohol flushing response with symptoms such as facial flushing, tachycardia, headache, and nausea. Recent studies have suggested that the flushing
A cutaneous test has been applied in examination of the flushing response to ethanol and acetaldehyde in 402 Chinese of Han ethnicity. Using this noninvasive method, five response subtypes have been observed: (A) fast flushing to both ethanol and acetaldehyde; (B) fast flushing only to ethanol but
BACKGROUND
We hypothesized that orthostatic intolerance (OI) is associated with gastric dysrhythmias, nausea, and abdominal pain, which improves using fludrocortisone to treat OI.
METHODS
Patients (n=16, girls) with OI completed questionnaires before and after fludrocortisone treatment (age 14.8 ±
The effect of naltrexone vs. placebo on alcohol-provoked flushing was studied in 20 healthy subjects of Oriental ancestry and 20 healthy white subjects. The intensity of the flushing reactions was assessed by two independent methods, the cutaneous perfusion index by laser Doppler velocimetry and the
Alcohol consumption among individuals who experience a flushing response (reddening of the face, nausea, dizziness, headache, anxiety, and increased heartbeat) can result in serious health problems. However, studies on reasons for drinking among flushers, especially in the college context, are
Flushing is the subjective sensation of warmth accompanied by visible cutaneous erythema occurring throughout the body with a predilection for the face, neck, pinnae, and upper trunk where the skin is thinnest and cutaneous vessels are superficially located and in greatest numbers. Flushing can be
Tranexamic acid is an anti-fibrinolytic agent frequently used in pediatric surgery. Common side effects include nausea, flushing, and headache, but in rare instances, it may produce anaphylaxis; with only one previously reported case in a 72-year-old man. We report a case of a delayed anaphylactic
Magnesium is one of the most abundant cations in the body and is essential for a wide variety of metabolically important reactions. Serum magnesium concentration is regulated by the balance between intestinal absorption and renal excretion. Hypomagnesaemia is relatively common, with an estimated
An inflight, clinically-oriented investigation of SMS was begun on STS-4 and revealed the following: compared to motion sickness on Earth, autonomic signs are significantly different in space motion sickness (SMS) vs. motion sickness (MS) in that sweating is not present, pallor or flushing may be
