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 mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- fresh gas flow (low, medium, high) during anesthesia
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help anesthesiologists choose the best gas flow to reduce nausea and vomiting after nose surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, single-center study with no blinding, so results may not apply to all surgeries or patients. The effect may be small or not clinically meaningful.
