Summary
Study start date: June 1, 2009
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.It was shown that there was an antagonism of the ondansetron on the analgesia led by acetaminophen in a model of nociception by electrical stimulation using the PainMatcher in healthy volunteers. Our study try to determinate if a such antagonism exist in clinical conditions : 66 patients with an Apfel-score II undergoing thyroidectomy were randomized in 3 equal groups. Each group received an antiemetic (ondansetron, droperidol or dexamethasone) at the begining of the intervention and paracetamol at the end of the intervention for the postoperative analgesia. During 2 hours in the postoperative unit, we raised : the electrical pain's threshold with the PainMatcher, the numeric pain intensity scale and the presence of nausea or vomiting. For each patients we determined the cytochrome P450 2D6 activity that should have been able to explain a diminution of ondansetron's efficiency. Paracetamol blood levels were also raised in the postoperative unit.
