Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation for postoperative nausea and vomiting in gynecological laparoscopic surgery: a randomized controlled trial protocol.

This randomized controlled trial protocol investigates whether transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) can reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery. PONV is a common and distressing surgical complication, and non-pharmacological neuromodulation approaches like taVNS are being explored as adjunctive interventions. The study protocol outlines methodology for evaluating taVNS efficacy and safety in this surgical population.
