An individualized approach to preventing nausea after surgery

By Sharon Rosen Sharon Rosen (@sharonhrosen)

After surgery, most patients are eager to recover and get back to their normal routine. But, for nearly one-third of patients, anesthesia drugs make them sick to their stomach and they start vomiting. This is what physicians call post-operative nausea and vomiting. It can be an uncomfortable side effect from anesthesia or pain medications. Some […]
