First seen Feb 14, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study tested whether adding a third drug (droperidol) to two standard anti-nausea medicines (ondansetron and dexamethasone) could better prevent vomiting after surgery in children. It included 322 children aged 3 to 18 who were at high risk for postoperative vomiting. The main goal was to see if the three-drug combination reduced vomiting more effectively than the usual two-drug approach.
