Breathing gas and nausea after hysterectomy study
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at whether levels of carbon dioxide in your breath and blood flow measurements during surgery can help predict nausea, vomiting, or pain after a hysterectomy. It may help doctors better manage your recovery.
