Extra drug could help kids avoid Post-Surgery nausea

NCT ID NCT01739985

Summary

This study tested whether adding a medication called droperidol to the standard two-drug combination (ondansetron and dexamethasone) works better at preventing vomiting after surgery in children. It involved 322 children aged 3-18 who were at high risk for post-surgery nausea. The goal was to see if the three-drug combination was more effective and safe than the standard two-drug approach.
