Study objective: To assess the efficacy of intraoperative different inspired oxygen fractions (FIO2) of 0.8 and 0.5 when compared with standard FIO2 0.3 in prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).
Design: A prospective, controlled, randomized, double-blind study.
Setting: General hospital, postanesthesia care unit (PACU) and gynecologic floor room. Patients: 120 ASA physical status I and II women, aged 21 to 76 y, undergoing elective gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.
Interventions: Patients were randomized to receive gas mixture of 30% oxygen in air (FI O2=0.3, group G30), 50% oxygen in air (FIO2=0.5, group G50) or 80% oxygen in air (FIO2=0.8, group G80), …
