Filter by:Perioperative aspiration is particularly concerning in pregnant women due to anatomical changes. To mitigate this risk, pre-anesthetic fasting is recommended, with varying guidelines. Gastric ultrasound can non-invasively assess stomach contents, and mathematical models help estimate stomach volumes using the gastric antral cross-sectional area (CSA). This study aims to compare CSA and estimated gastric volumes through ultrasound in fasting diabetic and non-diabetic pregnant women scheduled for cesarean section, as diabetes may affect stomach fullness. Additionally, it will investigate the relation between demographic and clinical variables and CSA values. This research can shed light on diabetes' influence on aspiration risk in pregnancy and evaluate fasting guidelines, underscoring the significance of gastric ultrasound.
Adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy are performed for many reasons such as recurrent tonsil and adenoid infections, sleep apnea, symptomatic adenotonsillar hypertrophy, halitosis, peritonsillar abscess, and it is one of the most performed surgeries in the world. Passive blood loss from the surgical field into the gastric area may occur during the surgery. Investigators wonder whether the amount of blood and fluid accumulated in the stomach after tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy in children will increase the risk of aspiration. For this purpose, the aim is to compare the results with values considered risky for aspiration by evaluating the pre- and postoperative gastric volume with ultrasound in children who underwent elective adenoidectomy and /or tonsillectomy.
Preoperative fasting was a common practice to decrease perioperative aspiration risk. Duration of fasting was proportional to gastric volume. Short fasting duration may increase aspiration risk. However, prolonged perioperative fasting duration may lead to dehydration and hypoglycemia. The objective of this study was to analyze gastric volume after 6-hour and 8-hour duration of fasting after consumption of solid meal on patients scheduled for elective surgery. This was a cohort study recruiting 37 subjects from January to February 2019. Subjects were patients scheduled for elective non-digestive surgery in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia. Before fasting, all subjects consumed standard Cipto Mangunkusumo meal and was later assessed for gastric volume using ultrasound at 6 and 8 hour after meal was consumed.
Pharyngeal packing is a frequently used application to reduce the incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients who undergo nasal surgery. This study aims to research the effects of PP on gastric antral cross-sectional area (ACSA) and hence gastric volume as assessed by ultrasound, therewithal PONV and sore throat were evaluated as secondary outcomes in rhino logic surgeries (Septorhinoplasty, Septoplasty, Functional endoscopic sinus surgery).
ASA fasting guidelines are only applicable to healthy elective surgery patients. Measuring gastric volume now is not easy, and scintigraphy has remained the gold standard technique for many years. This prospective observational study aim to explore the gastric emptying of type 2 diabetic patients.
To observe the effect of chewing lollipop on residual gastric volume in healthy volunteers with fasting.
To identify by ultrasound the possible changes in gastric volume and content after chewing gum for an hour in volunteers with complete fasting (more than 8 hours).
