Summary

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is an emerging treatment modality among the various types of surgical approach to obesity (1). The incidence of PONV in obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery, who did not receive antiemetic prophylaxis, is high at nearly 70-80 % (2,3). Postoperatively, bariatric patients appear to suffer from nausea and vomiting more frequently than normal weight or obese patients.
