Gastric Ultrasound Assessment for Preoperative Prandial State of Patients Taking Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists

Completed
Conditions
Pulmonary Aspiration
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Gastric ultrasound
Registration Number
NCT05889637
Lead Sponsor
The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the type of gastric content and quantify the volume of liquid gastric contents using ultrasonography in patients on GLP-1 agonists that have presented for elective surgery and to determine if risk factors are associated with a higher gastric volume in patients on GLP-1 receptor agonists.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of subjects that are at risk for aspirationend of ultrasound

Risk for aspiration is indicated by the presence of solids, thick fluid, or clear fluids \>1.5ml/kg in the gastric antrum in the right lateral decubitus position

Number of subjects that are at low risk for aspirationend of ultrasound

Low risk for aspiration is indicated by a collapsed gastric antrum or clear fluids \<1.5ml/kg in the gastric antrum in the right lateral decubitus position.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Ageend of ultrasound
Number of participants with Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)end of ultrasound
Body mass Index (BMI)end of ultrasound

Body Mass Index (BMI) is calculated as the body mass in kilograms (kg) divided by the square of the body height in meters, and is expressed in units of kg/m2.

Physical status as assessed by the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification systemend of ultrasound

The classification ranges from American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA)1 (normal healthy person ) to ASA IV (A patient with severe systemic disease that is a constant threat to life)

Number of participants with reported nothing by mouth (NPO) statusend of ultrasound
Number of participants that have use opioids preoperativelyend of ultrasound
Number of participants that are male as indicated in the medical recordsend of ultrasound
Number of participants that are female as indicated in the medical recordsend of ultrasound
Number of participants with diabetesend of ultrasound
Pain severity as assessed by the numeric scaleend of ultrasound

This is a 11 point scale with scores ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain)
