Single shot before surgery could stop Post-Op sickness

NCT ID NCT07421817

Summary

This study tested whether a single dose of a common steroid (dexamethasone) given right before surgery could reduce vomiting in the first day after laparoscopic gynecologic procedures. It involved 120 women who were randomly given either the steroid or a placebo (saltwater) injection. Researchers compared how many patients vomited and needed additional nausea medicine to see if the steroid helped.
