Official Title: Time-dependent Recovery of Gastric Emptying After Cessation of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists: a Prospective Observational Gastric Ultrasound Study
Brief Summary:
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) can delay gastric emptying and may increase residual gastric contents before general anesthesia.Current perioperative recommendations for withholding GLP-1 RAs (e.g., a fixed 7-day discontinuation for weekly agents) are largely consensus-based, and it is unclear whether gastric emptying normalizes abruptly after a single threshold interval.This prospective observational cohort study will evaluate how preoperative residual gastric content changes with increasing…
