简要总结
Long is among the most common complications after surgery, affecting more than 30% of patients. It is reported by patients to be among the top five undesirable outcomes. A systematic review has shown laproscopic surgery and increasing duration of surgery as independent predictors of PONV. Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that influences patient outcome. It has been assesed in prevention of PONV in intermediate and low risk surgery. Post operative pain is a main reason for delayed discharge. Opiods are ttraditionally used for acute post operative pain relief but can lead to side effects like nausea and vomiting and itching. Co analgesic drugs reduce the amount of opiods needed. Dexamethasone has been evaluated as a co analgesic due to it`s anti inflammatory effect as well as effect on pain pathway. We aim to asses the effect of Dexamethasone on post operative nausea and vomiting and post operative pain medicine requirement.
