About Intra-operative nausea and vomiting.

Intra-operative nausea and vomiting is an adverse clinical complication characterized by the unpleasant sensation of needing to vomit, retching, or the forceful expulsion of gastric contents occurring during a surgical procedure.

It primarily affects conscious or sedated patients undergoing regional or neuraxial anesthesia, such as women undergoing cesarean delivery under spinal or epidural blockade.

Pathophysiologically, it involves central nervous system emetic reflex pathways and the gastrointestinal system, frequently triggered by sympathectomy-induced maternal hypotension, transient cerebral or brainstem hypoperfusion, surgical manipulation of peritoneal and pelvic viscera, increased vagal tone, and the administration of intraoperative opioids or uterotonic medications.
