Sedative may speed up stomach after surgery, curbing nausea

NCT ID NCT06634524

Summary

This study tested whether a sedative drug called dexmedetomidine helps the stomach empty faster after keyhole gallbladder removal surgery. Researchers used ultrasound scans to measure stomach volume in 80 patients before and after their operation. The goal was to see if this drug could reduce common post-surgery problems like nausea and vomiting by helping the digestive system recover more quickly.
