dc.description.abstract | Background: There is considerable evidence that acupuncture applied at the traditional Chinese acupuncture point P6 is effective at preventing PONV (post operative nausea and vomiting) with very few side-effects. Furthermore, the effect compares favourably with antiemetic drugs. Patients & Methods: The study is conducted on a total of 50 patients, 25 for each group, age group ranging between 4 to 60years, ASA 1&2 category posted for surgery under General Anaesthesia. Results: The incidence of vomiting in dextrose group and ondansetron groups were equal, compared using chi-square test. P value was found to be 0.656. This shows that dextrose group was equally effective as ondansetron group. Conclusions: We found Injection of dextrose at P6 was equally effective as compared to Ondansetron IV in the prevention of post operative nausea and vomiting in the first 6 hours post operatively. | en_US |
