Use of sugammadex is associated with reduced incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting in adult patients with obesity undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery: a post-hoc analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common but troublesome complication in patients who undergo laparoscopic bariatric surgery (LBS). Whether sugammadex use is related to the persistent decrease in the occurrence of PONV during postoperative inpatient hospitalization, which is critical for the rehabilitation of patients after LBS, remains unknown.

Methods

The study was based on a randomized controlled trial conducted in an accredited bariatric centre. A total of 205 patients who underwent LBS were included in the analysis. Univariate analysis and multivariable logistic regression model were used to identify the significant variables related to PONV. Then propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) were employed to comp
