Summary
Carbon dioxide which is insufflated to inflate the abdominal area is absorbed from the peritoneal area and it increases endogenous catecholamines, which may consequently increase nausea and vomiting. In the literature, it is indicated that oxygen application which is one of the applications aiming to prevent nausea and vomiting is a cheap method with fewer side effects in the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting. In the literature, studies on the prevention of nausea and vomiting by oxygen application in different surgical interventions have not arrived at a consensus regarding surgery type and oxygen amounts. There are studies evaluating 80% and 30% oxygen amounts in removing postoperative nausea and vomiting. Taking these conditions into consideration; the study has been planned for the purpose of examining the impact of giving 80% and 60% oxygen to patients to whom laparoscopic cholecystectomy is applied on postoperative nausea and vomiting in the postoperative period. The study has been planned as a randomized controlled study for the purpose of determining the impact of giving oxygen (80% to the group A, 60% to the group B and control group C) to patients who apply to the general surgery service to undergo a laparoscopic cholecystectomy on postoperative nausea and vomiting in the postoperative period. The patients in the study will have the same standard anesthesia protocol and hospital routine. The study will be terminated once a total of 111 patients have been reached. In the study randomization, the patients will be assigned to the sample group according to weeks as they may influence each other. Data will be collected using Patient Introductory Information Form, which evaluates patients' socio-demographic characteristics, as well as Perioperative Period Patient Follow-Up Form and Postoperative Period Nausea-Vomiting Frequency and Severity Evaluation Form. Statistical analysis of the data to be acquired as a result of the study will be performed in the computer environment. The results to be obtained will be evaluated at p<0,05 significance level. It is expected that the study results will provide an alternative method, which will be used in preventing the possible side effects of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients who undergo a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Thus, the study results may make scientific and socio-economic contributions.
