10475299 JA Which clinical anesthesia outcomes are important to avoid? The perspective of patients Immediate postop anesthesia problems patients were most concerned about were vomiting/nausea, gagging on the endotracheal tube and incisional pain. 1999 Anesth Analg 89;3:652-8 Macario, A., Weinger, M., Carney, S., and Kim, A.
11886298 R,T Postoperative nausea and vomiting--can it be eliminated? Thorough review of the physiology of postoperative nausea and vomiting, treatment, consequences, future developments, and cost effective analysis. Overall incidence of this syndrome, more feared by patients than pain, is 30%, up to 70% in a high risk population. Increased risks include female, previous history of PONV or motion sickness, non-smoker and postop opioid use. Non-medication suggestions mentioned are acupressure and hypnosis. 2002 JAMA 287;10:1233-6 Gan, T. J.
11264210 JA Sex differences in speed of emergence and quality of recovery after anaesthesia: cohort study Women emerged more quickly from anesthesia than men, but took longer to stabilize and leave the recovery room. Women also had significantly more post anesthesia symptoms such as nausea and headache. 2001 BMJ 322;7288:710-1 Myles, P. S., McLeod, A. D., Hunt, J. O., and Fletcher, H.
Pain
1531235 JA A pilot study to assess the relationship between behavioral manifestations and self-report of pain in postanesthesia care unit patients Discusses sequence of pain behaviors in patients recovering from anesthesia, from grimacing to increased muscle tension to sounds--intent to help nurses assess pain more accurately. 1992 J Post Anesth Nurs 7;1:15-21 Mateo, O. M. and Krenzischek, D. A.
7707247 JA Relaxation therapy: its potential as an intervention for acute postoperative pain Nonpharmacologic pain relief methods for postanesthesia nurses. 1995 J Post Anesth Nurs 10;1:2-8 Atsberger, D. B.

1735869 RCT Effect of music therapy in the postanesthesia care unit: a nursing intervention Patients listening to music in the recovery room did not require pain meds on the nursing floor as soon as a control group, and perceived their experience as significantly more pleasant both one day and one month later. 1992 J Post Anesth Nurs 7;1:22-31 Heitz, L., Symreng, T., and Scamman, F. L.
11847794 JA The lived experience of listening to music while recovering from surgery Patients interviewed while listening to music in the RR reported it provided “(a) comfort from a discomforting condition, (b) familiarity in a strange environment, and (c) distraction from fear, pain, and anxiety.” 2000 J Holist Nurs 18;4:378-90 McCaffrey, R. G. and Good, M.
9093740 RCT The use of music during the immediate postoperative recovery period Patients who listed to music did not have measurable parameter differences in the recovery room, but felt the music helped them relax. 1997 AORN J 65;4:777-8, 781-5 Heiser, R. M., Chiles, K., Fudge, M., and Gray, S. E.
