SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: This will occur one time only, in a range of 20 to 30 minutes after the surgery is completed.

This is obtained from the records as time spent in the PACU (Recovery Room) after surgery.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: This will occur from time of entry into PACU to time of departure after their surgery. (One time only, in a range of 20 to 30 minutes after surgery.

Self-reported incidence of nausea. This will be assessed by asking the subjects once (just prior to discharge from the PACU) whether they experienced any nausea while they were in the PACU (Recovery Room) and will be a measurement of the count of participants that experienced nausea during this period
