SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: assessed at 6 and 24 hour after operative end

Rhodes Index of nausea, vomiting, and retching at 6 to 24 hours after surgery (ask 8 question about discomfort due to PONV and each questions are consist of 0\~4 score) (minimal PONV 0 to maximal PONV 32) lower values represent a bettwer outcome
