- Abstract: Objective To assess the correlation between the severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)with the quality of postoperative recovery and capacity of mobility in patients after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.Methods A total of 125 patients,80 males and 45 females,aged 18-64 years,BMI 18-35 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ,undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery were observed.The severity of PONV was assessed using the simplified PONV impact scale day 1 after sur-gery.The patients were divided into three groups according to the severity of PONV:non-PONV group(n = 87),mild PONV group(n = 31),and moderate to severe PONV group(n = 7).The quality of recovery was assessed using the quality of recovery-15(QoR-15)on the first day after surgery,and the capacity of mobility was assessed using the 6-minute walk test(6-MWT)on the second day after surgery.The multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the correlation between the severity of PONV and quality of post-operative recovery and capacity of mobility.Results The results of the corrected multiple linear regression model showed that,compared with the patients without PONV,the QoR-15 scores of the patients with mild and moderate-severe PONV on the first day after surgery were reduced by 4.5 scores(95%CI-8.9 to-0.04 scores,P = 0.048)and 15.8 scores(95%CI-24.8 to-6.8 scores,P = 0.001),respectively.Mild(MD =-27.4 m,95%CI-70.1 to 15.4 m,P = 0.207)and moderate-severe PONV(MD =-57.0 m,95%CI-145.7 to 31.6 m,P = 0.204)were not significantly associated with 6-MWT distance shortening on the second day after surgery.Conclusion Increased PONV severity is associated with poorer recovery quality in patients undergoing pulmonary surgery.Active prevention and treatment of PONV may contribute to early recovery of patients.
