Abstract
•Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a major concern for patients having surgery under general anesthesia causing subjective distress, along with increased complications and delays in hospital discharge.•Even after receiving antiemetic medications during the surgical procedure, the patient can emerge from anesthesia with c/o PONV or after administration of pain medication. Repeated doses of antiemetics in PACU do not always bring adequate relief. Upon admission to Same Day Surgery (SDS) the patient can experience renewed or onset nausea with change in position or ambulation.•Knowledge of a convenient, cost-effective aromatherapy product used at other facilities prompts further research and a request for permission to conduct a trial of the product. The goal of the trial is to determine the product’s effectiveness for future purchase as an adjunctive therapy for PONV.
