Impact of basal infusion on postoperative nausea and vomiting in fentanyl-based intravenous patient-controlled analgesia: A randomized controlled trial
Fentanyl-based IV PCA without basal infusion resulted in less postoperative nausea and vomiting than IV PCA with basal infusion and maintained adequate analgesia. Basal infusion can be omitted to reduce postoperative nausea using IV PCA by applying an appropriate lock-out interval. Further research comparing variable PCA settings is warranted.
