Comparison of TIVA (Total Intravenous Anesthesia) and TIVA Plus Palonosetron in Preventing Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting
Overview
A total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is a useful anesthetic technique that reduces the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Investigator hypothesized the incidence of PONV can be further reduced when palonosetron is added to TIVA.
