Brief Summary

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

Nausea and vomiting (PONV) remain a common problem in surgical units. Even after two or three prophylactic antiemetic interventions, patients with all four of the Apfel risk factors for PONV have an estimated 30 to 40% chance of suffering PONV. Olanzapine as an antiemetic represents a new use of an antipsychotic drug.
