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.

Study Objectives

3 intervention groups are designated in this study

This study does not include a placebo group 

Treatment Groups

Group I

Active Comparator
patients receiving ondansetron at the beginning of the surgery to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV); and paracetamol at the end of the surgery for postoperative analgesia.

Group II

Active Comparator
patients receiving droperidol at the beginning of the surgery to prevent PONV; and paracetamol at the end of the surgey for postoperative analgesia.

Group III

Active Comparator
patients receiving dexamethasone at the beginning of the surgery to prevent PONV; and paracetamol at the end of the surgey for postoperative analgesia.
