Nose job nausea: could anesthesia gas flow be the key?

NCT ID NCT06952946

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This completed study looked at 150 people having septorhinoplasty (nose surgery) to see if the fresh gas flow rate during anesthesia affects postoperative nausea and vomiting. Patients were split into three groups: low (0.5 L/min), medium (2 L/min), or high (4 L/min) gas flow. Researchers tracked nausea scores and vomiting episodes for 24 hours after surgery to compare the groups.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help anesthesiologists choose the best gas flow to reduce nausea and vomiting after nose surgery.
