Objectives

Narrative objectives1

In knee or hip arthroplasty(TKA THA), severe pain often necessitates high doses of opioids, which frequently cause nausea and vomiting. These symptoms not only reduce quality of life but also interfere with rehabilitation and increase the use of medical resources. Reducing opioid use to avoid side effects can lead to inadequate pain control, further delaying rehabilitation. Since many patients are elderly, prolonged bed rest can cause complications such as disuse syndrome, cognitive decline, and pulmonary embolism, negatively affecting prognosis.

Olanzapine, an atypical antipsychotic with antiemetic effects through multiple receptor antagonism, has shown effectiveness against opioid- and chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. While its efficacy has been demonstrated in younger women undergoing gynecologic surgery, it has not been studied in the elderly population typical of knee arthroplasty. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of olanzapine in preventing nausea and vomiting in elderly patients undergoing total arthroplasty.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Incidence and frequency of nausea and vomiting, administration of rescue anti-emetics within 6-hrs, 6-12 hrs and 12-24hrs after the surgery

Key secondary outcomes

Food intake status on the morning and afternoon after surgery; frequency of use of analgesics outside of the clinical pathway; pain NRS (Numerical Rating Scale) scores; RASS (Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale) score on the morning after surgery; wheelchair transfer assistance score on the day after surgery (as an indicator of rehabilitation progress); patient satisfaction; adverse events and their frequency.
