Does intravenous fluid loading with or without supplementary dextrose prevent nausea , vomiting and pain after laparoscopy?
These findings suggest that: 1) administration of dextrose is associated with nausea, increased opioid requirement and late thirst after elective gynecological laparoscopy; 2) iv fluids did not decrease PONV.
Our data provide further evidence that early stabilization of spine injuries is safe. In severely injured patients, it does not impair perioperative lung function and results in a reduced overall intensive care unit and hospital stay.
