About this study

Laparoscopic surgeries have many advantages e.g., decreasing postoperative pain, better cosmetic, rapid recovery, and better recovery but also, it has side effects e.g., pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting.

There are many risk factors that cause PONV either patient related factors or anesthesia related factors (opioids, inhalational anesthetics, Nitrous oxide and duration of anesthesia) and surgery related factors (intraabdominal, laparoscopic, postoperative pain).

Intraperitoneal instillation of drugs can be used for instillation of LA, opoids, ketamine and antiemetics to provide analgesia and manage side effects of laparoscopic surgery. The mechanism of action of ondansetron is inhibition of presynaptic 5-HT3 receptors that located in the peripheral nervous. Study the effect of intraperitoneal instillation vs intravenous ondansetron on PONV added to intraperitoneal bupivacaine for enhanced recovery and to decrease incidence of PONV after laparoscopic surgeries.

Drug

The aim is to detect effect of intravenous ondansetron for prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting

Other names: Intravenous zofran and intraperitoneal instillation of marcaine

Intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine

Drug

The aim is to detect effect of intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine

Primary outcomes

  1. measure incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting

    Time frame: 24 hours postoperative

    The number of patient suffering from postoperative nausea and vomiting in each group

  2. measure severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting

    Time frame: 24 hours postoperative

    Simplified Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting Impact Scale (S-PNVIS)

    • *Frequency of Nausea:*
    • 0: None
    • 1: Occasionally (1-2 times a day)
    • 2: Frequently (3-4 times a day)
    • 3: Constantly (more than 4 times a day)
    • *Frequency of Vomiting:*
    • 0: None
    • 1: Once a day
    • 2: 2-3 times a day
    • 3: More than 3 times a day
    • *Impact on Daily Activities:*
    • 0: No impact
    • 1: Mild impact (able to perform most activities)
    • 2: Moderate impact (some activities limited)
    • 3: Severe impact (most activities limited)

    #Scoring

    • *Total Score:* Sum of scores from all 3 items.
    • *Interpretation:* Higher total scores indicate a greater impact of nausea and vomiting on the patient recovery

Secondary outcomes

  1. measure total numbers of rescue antiemetic

    Time frame: all over 24 hours postoperative.

    patients will receive 10 mg intravenous metoclopramide as rescue antiemetic immediately

  2. Duration of hospital stay

    Time frame: 24 hours to 72 hours

    time from PACU discharge till time to discharge home

  3. postoperative pain by Numerical Rating Scale

    Time frame: 0 hour (basal) in PACU, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 hours postoperative

    10 cm line numbered from 0 to 10, patients instructed to circle the number that represents his/her pain intensity (0=no pain and 10=maximum pain)

  4. total dose of rescue analgesia postoperative

    Time frame: 24 hours postoperative

    total dose of diclofenac as rescue analgesia postoperative

  5. Patient satisfaction

    Time frame: 24 hours postoperative

    degree of satisfaction of the analgesia by using a 5-points Likert-like verbal scale (1 = very dissatisfied analgesia, 2 = dissatisfied analgesia, and 3 = neutral, 4=satisfied analgesia, and 5=very satisfied analgesia)
