Abstract
We report here on a case of a female patient with involuntary movements that lasted for approximately 8 hours after being administered a single dose of ramosetron, a highly selective serotonin 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 5-HT3) receptor antagonist, to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) at the end of general anesthesia with using propofol. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of involuntary movement related to ramosetron.
Key Words: Involuntary movement, Postoperative nausea and vomiting, Propofol, Ramosetron
