Abstract:
:We have studied the effect of P6 acupuncture on postoperative vomiting in 45 children undergoing tonsillectomy. After induction of anaesthesia and before the start of surgery, 50% of the patients received P6 acupuncture (in the middle of the ventral surface of the wrist) for 5 min. There was no difference in the incidence of vomiting between the acupuncture (39%) and non-acupuncture (36%) groups. We conclude that, when administered after induction of anaesthesia, P6 acupuncture is ineffective in reducing vomiting after tonsillectomy in children.
