The results of this randomized, double-blind study demonstrates that, compared with ondansetron, prochlorperazine provides superior control of PONV in patients undergoing total hip replacement or total knee replacement procedures.The incidence of nausea and vomiting in this study is greater than that reported by others for this patient population.Of interest are the contrasting sex-specific outcomes between the ondansetron- and prochlorperazine-treated patients.
