Official Title: Intraoperative Intravenous Dextrose Administration and the Incidence of Nausea and Vomiting After the Gynecologic Laparoscopic Surgery A Randomized Double-Blinded Controll
Brief Summary:
The investigators tested the hypothesis that administration of intravenous dextrose as a maintenance fluid in gynecologic laparoscopic surgery would reduce the incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) compared with normal saline solution in the same dose.
A prospective randomized double blinded controlled study was conducted. Eighty six participants were randomized to dextrose solution (n= 42) or normal saline solution (n= 44). The Bellville postoperative nausea and vomiting scores were recorded until 24 hours after surgery.
