Original Research Article Introduction: Post-operative Nausea and Vomiting still remains a challenge, despite having clinical perception and evidence that its severity has diminished. We conducted a descriptive study in post the operative units in several private clinics, Pabna, Bangladesh. Aim of the study: Our aim was to find out the magnitude of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients. Material & Methods: This was a prospective descriptive study to estimate the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. We conducted this study in post-operative units in the Department of Anesthesia, Ashiyan Medical College Hospital, Barua Khilkhet, Dhaka, Bangladesh Dhaka, and Bangladesh during the period from January 2018 to December 2018. Results: Nausea, emetic episodes and the need for anti-emetic medication were recorded for 24 h postoperatively. In the post-operative unit, nausea and vomiting were 27.25% and 13.25%, respectively. Over the whole 24-h period, these figures were 65.75% and 35%, respectively and severe nausea was experienced by 7.88% in an average. The highest rate of emetic sequelae was observed in gynaecological patients; 42% of the patients who received general anaesthesia and 62% of the patients who received regional anaesthesia reported nausea. Conclusion: The most important predictive factors associated with an increased risk for nausea and vomiting were female gender, a previous history of postoperative sickness, a longer duration of surgery and a history of motion sickness. Even though, nausea and vomiting problem is neglected in developing world like Bangladesh but it’s indeed a big problem for the patients and can hindered normal treatment procedures. Researchers should give more attention to this issue for reducing the burden of treatment facilities in our country.
