Abstract

The growing tendency toward ambulatory and daycare procedures, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are one of the most challenging and important issues in anesthesia management. The pathogenesis, pharmacological prevention, and rescue therapy for PONV are the main topics of this review. Multiple patient, surgical, pre-, intra-, and post-operative anesthesia-related factors can affect PONV. Medication has a main role effect the neural pathway. The desire to vomit is referred to as nausea. A forceful evacuation of stomach contents is referred to as vomiting. PONV was linked to a history of motion sickness, young age, female status, and non-smoking status. An evaluation of the risk of PONV can be done using a scoring system, such as the Apfel simplified scoring system, which is based on four independent risk factors.
