ABSTRACT
STUDY OBJECTIVE:
1) To quantify the incidence and severity of postdischarge nausea and vomiting (PDNV) for 7 days in adults undergoing outpatient surgeries with general anesthesia; 2) to evaluate whether a risk model previously developed for the first two postoperative days may be used to predict the patient's risk of PDNV for 7 days; and 3) to verify whether the same risk factors are applicable in the 3 to 7 day period.DESIGN:
Prospective study.SETTING:
Two university-affiliated centers. PATIENTS 248 adult (>18 years) surgical outpatients undergoing ambulatory surgical procedures with general anesthesia between 2007 and 2008. MEASUREMENTS The incidence and severity of PDNV and a simplified risk score for PDNV was assessed prospectively from discharge up to 7 postoperative days. MAINRESULTS:
The overall incidence of nausea was 56.9% and of emesis was 19.4%. The incidence of PDNV was highest on the day of surgery (DOS), with PDNV of 44.8% and decreasing over time to 6.0% on day 7. Using the simplified risk score for PDNV the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.766 (0.707, 0.825). A previous history of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV; OR 3.51, CI 1.70 - 7.27), operating room time (odds ratio [OR] 2.19, 95% CI 1.34 - 3.60), use of ondansetron in the Postanesthesia Care Unit (PACU; OR 6.39, CI 1.65-24.79), and pain during days 3-7 (OR 1.67, CI 1.30 - 2.14) were the strongest predictors of PDNV on days 3-7.CONCLUSIONS:
PDNV affects a significant number of patients after ambulatory surgery, and our simplified PDNV score may be applied to a 7-day population. Pain appears to be a factor in late PDNV. It is possible that the presence of PDNV during days 3-7 has different origins from the PDNV that resolved over the first 48 hours.Palavras-chave
