Effect of Intravenous Crystalloid Volume on Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting After Tonsillectomy and/or Adenoidectomy: a Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Group 1 and Group 2 for Postoperative Vomiting. Completed, enrolled 160 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
Postoperative nausea and vomiting is very common in children undergone tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy. The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the antiemetic effect of super-hydration with 0.9% saline in children undergoing specifically elective otorhinolaryngological surgery. Fluid intake reduces vomiting as seen following extended period of fasting that interrupts the perfusion in gut. Based on this knowledge, we hypothesized that administration of supplemental fluid would reduce the incidence of postoperative vomiting.
