This study looks at what makes people more likely to feel sick or vomit after nasal surgery done under general anesthesia. By joining, you'll help doctors better understand and prevent these uncomfortable side effects.
This trial tests if a newer painkiller (oliceridine) causes less nausea after a specific type of brain surgery than the standard painkiller (sufentanil). If you are having CPA region surgery and will receive a patient-controlled pain pump, this study may help find a better option for managing pain with fewer side effects.
This study compares two types of anesthesia during lung surgery to see which one reduces nausea and vomiting after the operation. One type avoids common painkillers (opioids), and the other uses them, so you may have less sickness after surgery.
This trial tests a medication called amisulpride to see if it can prevent nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic surgery on the female reproductive organs. It is given during surgery to help you feel better afterward.
This trial compares two pain medicines given during laparoscopic surgery to see which one causes less nausea and vomiting after surgery. If you are at high risk for post-surgery nausea, this study might help you recover more comfortably.
This trial tests if adding HRS5580 to standard anti-nausea medicine works better to stop vomiting after surgery. You may qualify if you are at moderate-to-high risk for nausea after general anesthesia.
