Comparison of palonosetron and dexamethasone with ondansetron and dexamethasone for postoperative nausea and vomiting in postchemotherapy ovarian cancer surgeries requiring opioid-based patient-controlled analgesia: A randomised, double-blind, active controlled study

Abstract: Background and Aims:Patients undergoing ovarian cancer surgery after chemotherapy and requiring opioid-based patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) are at high-risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). We aimed to assess the effect of palonosetron and dexamethasone combination for these patients for prevention of PONV.Methods:This study included 2 groups and 150 patients. At the time of wound closure, patients in group A received ondansetron 8 mg intravenous (IV) + dexamethasone 4 mg IV and group B receive… Show more

“…Compared with the palonosetron group, the severity of nausea at 0 to 6 hours after operation in the palonosetron + dexamethasone group was significantly lower (no/mild/moderate/severe: 49/22/15/10 vs 36/16/25/19, P = .008). Amit Kumar et al [ 37 ] reported palonosetron with dexamethasone is more effective than ondasetron with dexamethasone for prevention of PONV in post-chemotherapy ovarian cancer surgeries receiving opioid-based patient-controlled analgesia. Anish n g Sharma et al [ 38 ] found that among patients undergoing elective laparoscopic hysterectomy under general anesthesia, palonosetron combined with dexamethasone is more effective in the treatment of early, delayed and long-term PONV than ondansetron combined with dexamethasone.…”

“…Only 8.75% of the patients in our study received postoperative opioid analgesics, which is an important risk factor for PONV. Several studies [2,23,24] that found a higher incidence of PONV reported that patients used postoperative opioids more frequently. In our study, the type of surgery was associated with a low pain score; thus, the low postoperative opioid consumption may have led to a lower incidence of PONV.…”
