Study summary
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the commonly used surgical treatment methods for gallbladder diseases. However, many patients experience significant nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. It is observed that approximately 20% to 30% of patients experience postoperative nausea and vomiting as the most common complaint after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of periorbital massage in postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Apfel risk score — It will be filled half an hour before you go down for surgery. : Apfel Risk Score is a simple scoring used to determine the risk status of patients for PONV. Apfel Risk Score questions four factors such as being female, not smoking, having a history of PONV/motion sickness and using postoperative opioids. Each factor is evaluated as 1 point. Apfel risk score varies between 0-4 and is classified as low, medium and high risk. Apfel Risk score 0-1 is evaluated as low risk, 2 as medium risk and 3-4 as high risk.
Numerical Scale of Nausea — 0, 2, 6, 12 and 24 hours after surgery The numerical scale of nausea is a scale that starts with "0 (no nausea)" and ends with "10 (very severe nausea)" and is given a numerical value with 1 cm intervals. The numerical scale is one-dimensional and is mainly used to evaluate the severity of pain.
Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting Impact Scale — 0, 2, 6, 12 and 24 hours after surgery There are four options in the two-question scale, each with 0, 1, 2, or 3 points. The first question asks whether there is vomiting or retching, if any, and the frequency; the answers are "0" no, "1" once, "2" twice, "3" three times or more, with four options. The second question asks whether there is nausea (feeling of discomfort in the stomach and feeling like vomiting), if any, whether the feeling of nausea affects your ability to get out of bed, move around comfortably in bed, walk normally, or your daily life activities such as eating and drinking; the answers are "0" not very often, "1" sometimes, "2" often or often, and "3" always, with four options. The numerical values of the answers given to the first and second questions are added up and the result is found.
