The comparative effect of pressure acupressure and low-level laser acupressure on P6 point to the control of postoperative nausea and vomiting after abdominal laparoscopic surgery. 2025-03-21 anticipated 118 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/81062 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Prevention, Randomization description: This is done using the block permutation method. Based on this method, the organizer of the operating room, who is not the same person for data collection, before sending patients to the operating room, will categorize patients into two groups of A and B in the recursive following order "AABB, ABAB, ABBA, BBAA, BABA". For example: (AABB), the first and second patients in group A, the third and fourth patients in group B; (ABAB), the fifth and seventh patients in group A, the sixth and eighth patients in group B, and so on. The person responsible for data collection in the recovery room is not informed of the patient categories, Blinding description: The operating room organizer will divide the patients into A and B groups just before entering the operating room. Pressure acupressure and laser acupressure are performed by the anesthesiologist in the operating room. Since the patients and the person responsible for data collection and analysis are unaware of the group categorization, this study is a double-blind clinical trial. N/A Postoperative nausea and vomiting. Intervention 1: Intervention group: 20 minutes before induction of general anesthesia, laser acupressure is applied to the P6 point of both hands for 15 minutes using a diode laser with a wavelength of 808 nm and a power of 20 mw. In order to blind the patients, pressure cuffs without effective pressure are also applied to the same P6 point on both hands. Intervention 2: Intervention group: 20 minutes before induction of general anesthesia, pressure acupressure is applied to the P6 point of both hands for 15 minutes using pressure cuffs at a pressure level that does not affect venous return. To blind the patients, a diode laser with a wavelength of 808 nm and a power of 20 mw without effective radiation is also applied to the same P6 point on both hands. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: All data can be shared after hiding identities When: Upon completion of the study and submission of the final report To whom: Researchers at academic institutions Conditions: It can be used with a reference to the source used (forthcoming study). Where to obtain: Researchers (Reza Namdari - Reza.namdari78@gmail.com) (Dr. Alireza Susan Abadi - Dr.susanabadi@arakmu.ac.ir) How to obtain: Once the request is submitted and approved by the researchers, the data can be obtained.
