Postoperative nausea and vomiting is an increasingly common and
distressing problem faced by patients undergoing anesthesia that
negatively affects their recovery and wellbeing and can result in
significant increases in healthcare costs. Effective treatment
strategies and relevant, up-to-date guidance are essential to manage
postoperative nausea and vomiting in the perioperative setting. This
practical, concise guide to the subject offers information on the
history and mechanisms of postoperative nausea and vomiting, assessing
and identifying risk factors, providing appropriate pharmacological
and non-pharmacological treatment options, and implementing successful
management strategies to tackle this issue. As a uniquely
comprehensive study of the topic that provides much more detail than a
chapter in a general anaesthesia textbook, this is an invaluable
resource for anesthetists and physicians managing patients
post-surgery.
