- Abstract
Purpose: Patients with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are at high risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) has been proven effective in improving postoperative gastrointestinal function in patients with obesity, but its effect on prevention of PONV remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the impact of GDFT on PONV in high-risk patients with LSG. Methods: In a randomized, single-blinded, two-arm trial, patients with an Apfel score ≥ 3 and scheduled for LSG were included. Patients in the GDFT group received stroke volume-guided fluid therapy. Patients in the control group received conventional fluid therapy. The primary outcome was the incidence of PONV within 48 h after LSG. The second outcome included intensity of PONV, use of rescue therapy, recovery of gastrointestinal function, and postoperative length of stay (LOS). Results: A total of 137 patients were analyzed. The incidence of PONV in the GDFT group was lower than that in the control group (47.1% vs. 71.6%; odds ratio [95%CI], 0.35 [0.17–0.72]; P = 0.004). Fewer patients in the GDFT group received rescue therapy (30% vs. 58.2%; P = 0.001). Patients following GDFT protocol had a faster return of flatus (27.5 (19, 31) vs. 31 (20, 48) hours, P = 0.037) and shorter postoperative LOS (6.1 ± 1.0 vs. 6.6 ± 1.1 days; P = 0.007). Conclusion: GDFT is conducive to deceasing PONV occurrence, restoring intestinal function, and shortening postoperative LOS in high-risk patients undergoing LSG.
