Pre-operative 5% Dextrose Infusion & PONV

March 26, 2024 updated by: Shymaa Fathy, Cairo University

Is Pre-operative Infusion of 5% Dextrose Effective in Reducing the Incidence of PONV in Middle Ear Surgery? A Blinded Randomized Control Trial

With this study, we aim to compare the efficacy of pre-operative dextrose-containing fluid infusion with other fluid for the prevention of PONV in middle ear surgeries.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

We hypothesized that maintenance of stable level of blood glucose in addition to adequate hydration through preoperative intravenous dextrose 5% infusion will have a rule in decreasing the incidence and severity of PONV; as it reduces insulin resistance and decreases gastric acid secretion; which may contribute to PONV.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Control group
Patients will be fasted and not receiving any pre-operative fluids
Active Comparator: Dextrose group
Patients will take 100ml/HR of clear fluids (apple juice) during the fasting hours till 2 hrs before the operation and will receive dextrose 5% infusion at a rate of 1ml/kg/h 2hrs before the operation and till the end of the operation
Decrease fasting hours
Placebo Comparator: Normal saline group
Patients will take 100ml/HR of water during the fasting hours till 2 hrs before the operation and will receive normal saline 0.9% at a rate of 1ml/kg/h (group NS) intravenously (IV)2hrs before the operation and till the end of the operation
Decrease fasting hours
