BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of a strategy to prevent @entity1209 ( @entity1209 ) in @entity1 undergoing general surgery. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective observational study. METHODS: A first period was observational. During a second period, a strategy to prevent @entity1209 was based on five @entity4059 ( @entity4059 ) identified after the first phase. From two @entity4059 , antiemetic treatment was given according to the number of @entity4059 . The incidence of @entity1209 was recorded in postoperative anaesthesic care unit (PACU) and at the 24th postoperative hour (24h). RESULTS: We prospectively enrolled 823 @entity1 . Implementation of a prophylactic @entity1209 strategy was associated with a decrease of @entity390 in PACU from 29.9 to 9.8% (P<0.001) and at 24h from 19 to 10.3% (P<0.001). Vomiting decreased from 12.4 to 2.3% (P<0.001) in PACU and from 5.6 to 3.7% at 24h (non-significant). CONCLUSION: Prophylaxis of @entity1209 by the administration of antiemetic treatment according to a strategy based on a local risk score was efficient and associated with a significant decrease of @entity1209 .
