BACKGROUND: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a significant problem following paediatric surgery, and volatile anaesthetics are an important cause of this phenomenon. BIS-guided anaesthesia, by reducing the consumption of anaesthetics, leads to a decrease in PONV in adult patients. STUDY OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the role of BIS-guided anaesthesia in reducing the incidence of paediatric PONV. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, double-blind study. SETTING: A single center study in university hospital in Czech republic, from June 2021 to November 2022. PATIENTS: A total of 163 children, aged 3-8 years with ASA I-II who underwent endoscopic adenoidectomy under general anaesthesia were included. INTERVENTIONS: In the intervention group, the depth of anaesthesia was maintained to values between 40 and 60 of BIS. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The primary outcome was the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting during 24 h after surgery. RESULTS: The use of BIS-guided anaesthesia led to a significant decrease in the incidence of nausea and vomiting compared to the control group [17% vs. 53%; RR (95%CI) 0.48 (0.27-0.86); p < 0.001and 16% vs. 34%; RR (95%CI) 0.33 (0.20-0.54); p = 0.01, respectively]. CONCLUSIONS: BIS-guided anaesthesia decreases the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in children undergoing adenoidectomy. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT04466579.

Postdischarge nausea and vomiting (PDNV) cause substantial pediatric morbidity with potentially serious postoperative complications. However, few studies have addressed PDNV prevention and treatment in pediatric patients. Here we searched the literature and processed it in a narrative review describing PDNV incidence, risk factors, and management in pediatric patients.. A successful strategy for reducing PDNV considers both the pharmacokinetics of the antiemetic agents and the principle of multimodal prophylaxis, utilizing agents of different pharmacologic classes. Since many highly effective antiemetic agents have relatively short half-lives, a different approach must be used to prevent PDNV. A combination of oral and intravenous medications with longer half-lives, such as palonosetron or aprepitant, can be used. In addition, we designed a prospective observational study with the primary objective of determining PDNV incidence. In our study group of 205 children, the overall PDNV incidence was 14.6% (30 of 205), including 21 children suffering from nausea and 9 suffering from vomiting.
