About this study

Official title: Is Pre-operative Infusion of 5% Dextrose Effective in Reducing the Incidence of PONV in Middle Ear Surgery? A Blinded Randomized Control Trial

With this study, we aim to compare the efficacy of pre-operative dextrose-containing fluid infusion with other fluid for the prevention of PONV in middle ear surgeries.

Read the detailed description

We hypothesized that maintenance of stable level of blood glucose in addition to adequate hydration through preoperative intravenous dextrose 5% infusion will have a rule in decreasing the incidence and severity of PONV; as it reduces insulin resistance and decreases gastric acid secretion; which may contribute to PONV.

Being tested
Dextrose 5%, normal saline
Medical subject headings
Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

PONV (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
