Name of journal: Anesthesia and analgesiaAbstract: The present guidelines are the most recent data on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and an update on the 2 previous sets of guidelines published in 2003 and 2007. These guidelines were compiled by a multidisciplinary international panel of individuals with interest and expertise in PONV under the auspices of the Society for Ambulatory Anesthesia. The panel members critically and systematically evaluated the current medical literature on PONV to provide an evidence-based reference tool for the management of adults and children who are undergoing surgery and are at increased risk for PONV. These guidelines identify patients at risk for PONV in adults and children; recommend approaches for reducing baseline risks for PONV; identify the most effective antiemetic single therapy and combination therapy regimens for PONV prophylaxis, including nonpharmacologic approaches; recommend strategies for treatment of PONV when it occurs; provide an algorithm for the management of individuals at increased risk for PONV as well as steps to ensure PONV prevention and treatment are implemented in the clinical setting.All authors: Angus S, Apfel CC, Bergese SD, Candiotti KA, Chan MT, Chung F, Davis PJ, Diemunsch P, Gan TJ, Habib AS, Hooper VD, Kovac A, Kranke P, Lagoo-Deenadayalan S, Meyer TA, Myles P, Nezat G, Philip BK, Society for Ambulatory Anesthesia, Tramer MR, Watcha MFiscal year: FY2014Digital Object Identifier: Date added to catalog: 2014-04-07
