title: The effect of premedication on the incidence of postoperative vomiting in children after E.N.T. surgery.
abstract: The influence of premedication and intraoperative narcotic administration on the incidence of vomiting after E.N.T. surgery was studied over a six-month period in 596 children. A high incidence of vomiting was found after intramuscular papaveretum and hyoscine and after oral diazepam. Oral trimeprazine tartrate was associated with a low incidence of vomiting and was found to have an anti-emetic effect when an opiate analgesic was administered after induction of anaesthesia.
