Dextrose Containing Fluid and the Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in the Gynecologic Laparoscopic Surgery

May 3, 2017 updated by: Pathomporn Pin on, M.D., Chiang Mai University

Intraoperative Intravenous Dextrose Administration and the Incidence of Nausea and Vomiting After the Gynecologic Laparoscopic Surgery A Randomized Double-Blinded Controlled Study

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.

Detailed Description

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a major complication in laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. There are limited data and conflicting results from previous studies related to the types of intravenous fluid and a reduction in PONV. The incidence of nausea is slightly greater than the incidence of vomiting (50% vs. 30%). General anesthesia increased the likelihood of PONV 11 times compared with other types of anesthesia. Laparoscopic surgery can further increase the incidence of PONV to 80%.Identified risk factors of PONV included female, history of motion sickness, nonsmoking, younger age, general anesthesia, use of volatile anesthetics and nitrous oxide, opioids, duration of anesthesia, and types of surgery (cholecystectomy, laparoscopic, gynecological). Adequate intravenous fluid hydration is another effective strategy for reducing the baseline risk for PONV (Evidence A2). Previous studies showed that there was no difference in efficacy between crystalloids and colloids when similar volumes were used in surgeries associated with minimal fluid shifts. While liberal intravenous fluid administration, such as 30 ml/ kg of sodium lactate solution, reduced the incidence of PONV after gynecologic laparoscopy compared to another group receiving 10 ml/kg of sodium lactate solution, this strategy did not reduce the PONV in other surgical procedures such as thyroidectomy. Among crystalloid solutions, results from previous studies were conflicting regarding the benefit of intravenous dextrose administration to reducing the PONV. Hypovolemia with and without hypoglycemia after overnight fasting were believed to exacerbate PONV.

The investigators hypothesized that intraoperative infusion of dextrose solution could reduce the incidence and severity of PONV. The investigators proposed to determine the relationship between types of fluid administration and antiemetic requirement and serum glucose in paricipants scheduled for the gynecologic laparoscopy.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
