Machine learning for prediction of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients with intravenous patient-controlled analgesia.

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a still highly relevant problem and is known to be a distressing side effect in patients. The aim of this study was to develop a machine learning model to predict PONV up to 24 h with fentanyl-based intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV-PCA).
