Summary

This study tests whether combining electroacupuncture (a gentle electrical stimulation of acupuncture points) with a standard anti-nausea drug can better prevent nausea and vomiting after lung cancer surgery. It involves 204 high-risk patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung surgery. The main goal is to see if fewer people feel sick in the first 24 hours after the operation.
