Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Backgound: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common and distressing complications after anaesthesia and surgery. Aim: Compare the antiemetic efficacy of intravenous Ramosetron, Granisetron and Ondansetron for prophylaxis of post operative nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic surgeries under General Anesthesia. Methodology: It is a prospective study include 50 patients undergoing laproscopic surgery under general anesthesia. Study is done for a period of 6 months. Patients were randomly divided into three groups, Group-A received Ondansetron 8mg, Group-B received Granisetron 3 mg and Group-C received Ramosetron 0.3mg Results: However, there were no significant differences in the incidence of nausea and vomiting, severity of nausea, and required rescue PONV between the groups in first 24 hours. Between 24-48 hrs the incidence of nausea and vomiting is significantly(p value=0.05) less in Group C compared to group-A. Ramosetron is giving longer protection against PONV up to 48 hours. Conclusion: Study therefore concludes that prophylactic therapy with Ramosetron is more effective than with Ondansetron and Granisetron for the long term prevention of PONV after laparoscopic surgeries under general anaesthesia
