Abstract
INTRODUCTION Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) recommending palonosetron for the prevention and management of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) were adapted for use at our institution. Palonosetron was restricted for use in patients experiencing breakthrough CINV and receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC) or undergoing stem cell transplant conditioning and in patients with refractory CINV receiving HEC. Given the significant cost of palonosetron, we aimed to determine the proportion of chemotherapy blocks where palonosetron use was discordant with the institutional policy or source CPG. METHODS A retrospective review of the health records of patients who received palonosetron between 1 July 2019 and 30 June 2020 was undertaken. Details of palonosetron use, antiemetic regimen and the date and time of each vomit during the acute and delayed phases were collected for each chemotherapy block where palonosetron was given. Discordance with the institutional policy and the source CPG was determined by assessing the indication for palonosetron and the dose. In the subset of chemotherapy blocks where information regarding vomiting episodes was available, the extent of acute phase chemotherapy-induced vomiting (CIV) control was reported. RESULTS Four hundred thirty-eight chemotherapy blocks, representing 122 patients (mean age 9 years), receiving 595 palonosetron doses were included. Palonosetron use was discordant with institutional policy during most (72%; 314/438) of the chemotherapy blocks analyzed. However, palonosetron use was concordant with the source CPG during most chemotherapy blocks (74%; 326/438). Complete CIV control during the acute phase was observed in 66% (195/295) of chemotherapy blocks where palonosetron was given, irrespective of concomitant antiemetics administered. CONCLUSION The majority of palonosetron use at our institution was discordant with institutional policy, but concordant with the source CPG. Our institutional policy has since been updated to be more aligned with the source CPG.

Abstract
This case report aims to introduce a patient with severe hypokalemia as one of the rare complications of ondansetron injection. The stroke patient was 56 years old and hospitalized in the emergency department with and purulent sputum. The symptoms and lung computed tomography scan confirmed the diagnosis of aspiration pneumonia. A nasogastric tube was inserted, and food gavage was performed for the patient. The treatment was started with meropenem to manage aspiration pneumonia. The patient could not tolerate the gavage. Consequently, ondansetron was prescribed, but severe hypokalemia of 2.5 mEq/l was developed. The causes of hypokalemia were evaluated. The hematological, biochemical, and liver function tests were done, and the potassium level was measured daily. Afterward, causes of hypokalemia was ruled out and with discontinuation of ondansetron the hypokalemia was resolved. Hypokalemia may be caused by ondansetron. It is required that potassium monitoring be always considered during administrating of this medicine.

Abstract
This clinical practice guideline provides recommendations for preventing acute and delayed phase chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in pediatric patients. The recommendations are based on two systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials evaluating interventions to prevent (1) acute phase CINV and (2) delayed phase CINV. Recommendations for acute phase and delayed phase CINV prophylaxis are made for patients receiving chemotherapy of varying emetogenicity, as well as for patients not able to receive dexamethasone or a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist. Evidence gaps, including antiemetic safety and optimal dosing, were identified.

Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2022; 12:876781. [PMID: 36061858 PMCID: PMC9437319 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2022.876781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Studies show that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), such as Liujunanwei (LJAW) decoction, can play important roles in alleviating side effects of chemotherapy. The purpose of this study was to understand how LJAW can counter chemotherapy-induced emesis via alteration of gut microbiota. We evaluated the effect of LJAW on cisplatin (DDP)-induced nausea and vomiting using a rat-pica model. Rats react to emetic-producing stimuli with increased kaolin consumption, a phenomenon called pica. The rats were injected with cisplatin and then randomly assigned to the control (DDP), Ondansetron or LJAW. The intake of kaolin and chow diet as well as body weights were recorded every 24 hours. Fecal samples were collected prior to, after three and seven days of treatment. The expression of proteins was measured by western blot. The concentration of cytokines and serotonin was evaluated using ELISA assay kits. Kaolin consumption in rats induced by cisplatin was reduced by 16.5%, 22.5%, and 30.1% in the LJAW group compared to the DDP group at 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours, respectively (p>0.05). LJAW significantly increased the food intake of the rats (13.94 ± 4.73 g) during the first 24 hours as opposed to the DDP (9.23 ± 3.77 g) (p<0.05). 16S rRNA gene sequencing showed the abundance of Bacteroidetes increased in cisplatin treated rats. In addition, cisplatin injection caused an enrichment of Escherichia-Shigella and Enterococcus at the genus level. While, enrichment of Blautia and Lactobacillus was presented in LJAW treated rats. Serotonin decreased in LJAW treated intestine and medulla oblongata tissues. Further, the protein expression of tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) a rate limiting enzyme of serotonin was inhibited in LJAW treated rat’s jejunum compared with cisplatin only treated rats. In addition, LJAW downregulated chemotherapy induced elevated inflammation. The results of this study indicated that LJAW is capable of decreasing cisplatin-induced kaolin intake in rat-nausea model (pica), which might be mediated through gut microbiome-induced anti-inflammation and anti-serotonin synthesis functions.

Meta-Analysis of the Effect of Dietary Care on Nausea and Vomiting in Oncology Chemotherapy Patients. CONTRAST MEDIA & MOLECULAR IMAGING 2022; 2022:3163230. [PMID: 35965623 PMCID: PMC9357727 DOI: 10.1155/2022/3163230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Revised: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effect of dietary care on chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in oncology patients. Methods A retrospective analysis of digestive symptoms was conducted in cancer patients admitted to our hospital, who received chemotherapy, and corresponding effective dietary care countermeasures were adopted. Results After the nursing intervention, the incidence of digestive symptoms was significantly reduced, the quality of life was significantly improved (59.92 ± 6.57) vs. (37.95 ± 7.50), and the nursing satisfaction was significantly higher (91.67% vs. 69.44%), with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Meta-analysis showed that short-term (0 to 3 months) dietary care could alleviate nausea and vomiting symptoms in chemotherapy patients (P < 0.001) and improve the survival quality of oncology patients (P < 0.01). The effect of long-term (3–6 months) dietary care on the control of nausea and vomiting symptoms in chemotherapy patients was certain (P < 0.05), but the effect on the improvement of their quality of life (P > 0.05) was unclear. Conclusion Dietary care can alleviate the symptoms of nausea and vomiting in tumor chemotherapy patients and improve the quality of life of short-term chemotherapy tumor patients, so it can be recommended to strengthen the dietary management for tumor patients receiving chemotherapy. Patients receiving chemotherapy should be given corresponding dietary nutritional care according to their clinical symptoms in order to alleviate their adverse reactions, enhance their own immunity, and improve the prognosis of cancer patients.

Abstract
Vertigo in children is a challenging topic. The lack of dedicated trials, guidelines and papers causes inhomogeneity in the treatment of vertigo in children. Meniere’s disease, migraine equivalents, vestibular neuritis, paroxysmal positional benign vertigo (BPPV), persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) and motion sickness may affect children with various degrees of incidence and clinical severity compared to adults. Several drugs are proposed for the management of these conditions, even if their use is subordinated to the child’s age. In this review, we summarize the existing evidence related to the use of drugs for this clinical condition in children as a start point for new trials, stating the urgent need for international guidelines.

A Scoping Review of Biological Pathways of Integrative Interventions Used to Manage Chemotherapy-induced Nausea and Vomiting in Children with Cancer. Nurs Res 2022; 71:227-240.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As with pharmacologic management approaches, characteristics of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) interventions for managing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in children with cancer should be considered when developing and testing these interventions and reporting the outcomes. OBJECTIVES This systematic scoping review aimed to identify gaps and weaknesses in studies of CAM and integrative interventions to prevent and manage CINV in children being treated for cancer, according to the CINV biological pathways. METHODS This systematic scoping review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR guideline. Included studies were published in English prior to May 2020 and examined the effects of integrative interventions on CINV in children being treated for cancer. Computerized searches and manual review were performed by two authors; these authors also extracted data about study characteristics, intervention characteristics, and CINV outcomes from the studies included in the review. RESULTS 26 studies of 29 CAM interventions met eligibility criteria. Most of these studies used RCT designs and measured CINV outcomes at least once prior to and then after the intervention. Some studies did not explicate the interval between exposure to the intervention and outcome measurements. The CAM interventions studied included 15 cognitive-behavioral interventions, eight acupoint stimulation interventions, five herb/supplementation interventions, and one educational intervention. The one study tested two CAMs explicated the underlying biological pathways, while 25 studies (27 CAMs) did not explicate pathways; the pathways were deduced from information provided in the articles. DISCUSSION Considering the biological pathways underlying CINV while developing integrative interventions, including the CAM component could improve intervention efficacy. Measurement of biomarkers of activity in these pathways would provide a means to test whether changes in underlying pathways mediate change in CINV. Better reporting of intervention details and study processes is needed to support replication of CAM interventions and inform translation into clinical practice.

Abstract
A systematic review was undertaken to describe dexamethasone doses studied for chemotherapy-induced vomiting (CIV) prophylaxis in pediatric patients and their effects on achieving complete acute CIV control. No dose-finding studies were identified. However, 16 studies assessing pediatric patients who received dexamethasone were included and classified according to the emetogenicity of chemotherapy administered. Eight different total daily dexamethasone doses were administered to patients on day 1 of highly emetogenic chemotherapy: three in conjunction with aprepitant/fosaprepitant plus a 5HT3 antagonist and five in conjunction with a 5HT3 antagonist. Five different total daily dexamethasone doses were administered in conjunction with a 5HT3 antagonist to patients on day 1 of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy. Due to the heterogeneity of studies identified, meta-analysis was not possible. The optimal dexamethasone dose to control acute CIV and to minimize harms in pediatric patients remains uncertain. This is a key area for future research.

Abstract
Antineoplastic drug induced nausea and vomiting are common adverse events in cancer care of paediatric patients ; therefore, prevention and management of these adverse events is a major concern for healthcare professionals. There are common features between paediatric and adult patients in terms of the emetogenic level depending on antineoplastic agents or about available medicines. However, there are also specificities for paediatric population including individual risk factors of emesis or nausea assessment for example. Knowledge relative to available medicines is also limited in the paediatric population, especially for recent medicines. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview about antiemetics in paediatric oncology to clinicians and other healthcare professionals involved in paediatric cancer care. First of all, we describe physiopathological paediatric specificity, risk factors and clinical assessment of antineoplastic drug induced nausea and vomiting. Secondly, we focus on available medicines and also address the issue of complementary and alternative medicines.
