Oleh :

dr. Andrian Yadikusumo, Sp.An

Ekstrak jahe telah sering digunakan untuk mencegah kejadian mual muntah pascaoperasi. Ekstrak jahe sendiri sudah sering digunakan sebagai tanaman herbal pencegah mual dan muntah pada ibu hamil dan pasien kanker pasca kemoterapi. Hal ini karena ekstrak jahe diyakini memiliki efek antiemetik yang baik, baik pada sistem susunan saraf pusat maupun lokal di sistem gastrointestinal.[1-5]

Kejadian Mual dan Muntah Pascaoperasi

Sebagian besar pasien pascaoperasi mengalami mual dan muntah. Terdapat data yang melaporkan angka kejadian mual dan muntah pascaoperasi berkisar 1‒43% dari seluruh total pasien operasi. Pada tahun 2014, di Di Amerika Serikat kejadian mual muntah sebanyak 20‒30% dari seluruh pasien operasi dengan anestesi umum. Sementara, di Indonesia, belum terdapat angka kejadian mual muntah pasca operasi yang cukup valid.[6]
