Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Postoperative nausea and vomiting after outpatient surgery are significant sources of patient dissatisfaction. The prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) should be equally as important as prevention of pain because both are large sources of patient dissatisfaction and can necessitate admission after routine outpatient procedures. None of the currently available pharmacological interventions are able to totally abolish PONV. The use of electroacustimulation is a useful adjunct in prevention of PONV, but has yet to be studied when the patient takes the device home with them after leaving an outpatient facility.
