Standardised electronic algorithms for monitoring prophylaxis of postoperative nausea and vomiting

Abstract

Adherence to PONV prophylaxis guidelines in the era of AIMS software and decision support is still remarkably low. The AIMS data usefulness depends on the user, the type of data input and the configuration of the software. Adherence to correct PONV prophylaxis should be re-evaluated systematically before discharge from PACU.
