Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if intragastric administration of lidocaine can reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does administering 0.5% lidocaine via an orogastric tube reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in the post-anesthesia care unit and within the first 24 hours after surgery compared to a placebo (normal saline)?

Researchers will compare the Lidocaine Group to the Placebo Group to see if the intervention lowers the PONV incidence.

Participants will:

* Receive the assigned study solution (either 0.5% lidocaine 20ml or normal saline 20ml) through an orogastric tube upon surgery completion and before extubation.
* Have their gastric tube clamped for 5 minutes to ensure mucosal exposure before removal.
* Undergo standardized total intravenous anesthesia and perioperative management according to the study protocol.
* Be assessed for nausea, vomiting, and other outcomes at specified time points postoperatively in the recovery room and at 6, 12, and 24 hours.

Conditions

  • PONV

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Lidocaine

Upon completion of the surgery and before extubation, 20 ml of 0.5% lidocaine should be administered through the pre - inserted orogastric tube. The gastric tube should be clamped for 5 minutes to ensure sufficient mucosal exposure, and then removed before extubation.

PROCEDURE

Normal Saline (0.9% NaCl)

Before extubation after the surgery is completed, administer 20 ml of normal saline through the pre - inserted orogastric tube. Clamp the gastric tube for 5 minutes to ensure sufficient mucosal exposure, and then remove the tube before extubation.
