Abstract
BACKGROUND: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a frequently observed complication in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia. Moreover, it is a frequent cause of distress and dissatisfaction in the early postoperative period. Currently, the classical scores used for predicting PONV have not yielded satisfactory results. Therefore, prognostic models for the prediction of early and delayed PONV were developed in this study to achieve satisfactory predictive performance.
