Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are the most common and distressing side effects following Laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In the operating room, standard monitors included electrocardiogram, noninvasive arterial blood pressure, arterial oxygen saturation, and end-tidal carbon dioxide were connected. All patients received standardized anesthetic technique. At the end of surgery, gastric contents were suctioned via an orogastric tube before extubation. Atropine and neostigmine (1/2.5 mg) was given slowly I.V. to antagonize the residual neuromuscular block. Then, the trachea was extubated. Then, patients were transferred to the post-anesthesia care unit in a stable condition. Patients were allowed to drink liquids as soon as requested.
