Objective: to determine the effect of smoking on the post-operative nausea and vomiting (ponv) as well as severity of pain in the post-operative period.methodology: a total of 147 patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia were divided into 2 groups of non-smokers (n=75) and smokers (n=72). in the first 24 hours after surgery the frequency of ponv and the severity of pain on visual analogue score were assessed.results: the group of non-smokers had statistically more nausea and vomiting (n=59, 78.6%) as compared to that of smokers (n=20, 27.7%) [p<0.05].however there was no significant difference in the maximum pain scores in both the groups (p>0.05).conclusion: we conclude that frequency of ponv is less in smokers as compared to non-smokers.
