“…Coloma et al [11] compared TENS with ondansetron after antiemetic prophylaxis in patients who had undergone laparoscopic surgery and suggested TENS as an alternative to ondansetron in preventing PONV. White et al [12] compared acustimulation with ondansetron (4 mg IV) when used as prophylaxis against PONV.…”

“…When used for prophylaxis, the combination of ondansetron and acupoint electrical stimulation was associated with lower incidence of PONV, less need for rescue antiemetics as well as improved quality of recovery and patient satisfaction, compared to ondansetron alone. 113,114 Hypnosis has also been found effective when compared with placebo (IIIB). 115 Although some earlier reports suggested that ginger root might have a beneficial effect for PONV prophylaxis, this has not been confirmed in a recent meta-analysis (IIA).…”

P Pu ur rp po os se e: : To provide evidence-based guidelines for the prophylaxis and treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).S So ou ur rc ce e: : Literature from randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, logistic regression analyses and expert opinion in the management of PONV.P Pr ri in nc ci ip pa al l f fi in nd di in ng gs s: : The etiology of PONV is multifactorial. Patient, anesthesia, and surgery related risk factors have been identified. Universal PONV prophylaxis is not cost-effective. Identification of patients at high-risk of PONV allows targeting prophylaxis to those who will benefit most from it. No prophylaxis is needed for patients at low risk for PONV. For patients at moderate risk for PONV, prophylaxis using a single antiemetic or a combination of two agents should be considered. Double and triple antiemetic combinations should be considered for patients at high risk for PONV. Furthermore, a multimodal approach should be adopted incorporating steps to keep the baseline risk of PONV low. The optimum cost-effective approach to the management of PONV will differ between an ambulatory centre and an inpatient hospital setting. For the treatment of established PONV in patients who failed prophylaxis, patients should not receive a repeat dose of the prophylactic antiemetic. Rather, a drug acting at a different receptor should be used. Beyond six hours after surgery, patients can be treated with any of the agents used for prophylaxis, except dexamethasone and transdermal scopolamine.C Co on nc cl lu us si io on n: : PONV are common after anesthesia and surgery. We provided evidence-based guidelines for the management of this problem based on the available literature. Objectif : Énoncer des lignes de conduite fondées sur des données probantes pour la prévention et le traitement des nausées et des vomissements postopératoires (NVPO). Source : Les publications d'essais contrôlés et randomisés, les études méthodiques, les analyses de régression logistique et l'opinion d'experts sur le traitement des NVPO. Constatations principales : L'origine des NVPO est multifactorielle. Les facteurs de risque reliés au patient, à l'anesthésie et au type de chirurgie sont connus. La prévention universelle des NVPO n'est pas rentable. L'identification des patients à haut risque de NVPO permet

“…In Chinese medicine, P6 point is called as the peak of body energy 8 and therefore, when Acupressure is competently applied, the body's energy balance will be restored. In other studies, the effect of Acupressure at P6 was confirmed in various medical interventions 9,10 . However, these results were in contrast with those of other studies [11][12][13] .…”

Comparison of Acustimulation and Ondansetron for the Treatment of Established Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

Abstract: Acustimulation with the ReliefBand can be used as an alternative to ondansetron for the treatment of established PONV. However, the use of ondansetron (4 mg intravenously) in combination with the ReliefBand device improved the complete response rate to the acustimulation therapy.
