Brief Summary

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

The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of three different regimens of prophylactic ondansetron on the incidence and severity of post-operative nausea and vomiting.

Detailed Description

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

Patients will be randomize to one of three arms: 4mg ondansetron pre-emergence, 8 mg ondansetron pre-emergence, or 4mg ondansetron pre-incision followed by 4mg ondansetron pre-emergence. Primary outcome will be incidence of PONV in the PACU prior to discharge.
