Summary

This study will use bedside ultrasound to measure stomach volume in 80 pregnant women before planned cesarean sections. The goal is to better understand how fasting time and liquid type affect stomach contents, which can help prevent aspiration (stomach contents entering the lungs) during surgery. Participants are healthy pregnant women aged 18-45 scheduled for elective C-section.
