Granisetron Combined With Dexamethasone or Metoclopramide for PONV Prevention After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Sponsor: Assiut University
Summary
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) remain common and distressing complications following laparoscopic cholecystectomy, particularly in female patients. This randomized interventional study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of preoperative granisetron when combined with either dexamethasone or metoclopramide in preventing PONV. The study compares the incidence and severity of nausea and vomiting, as well as the need for rescue antiemetic therapy, among female patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia.
