Diabetes drug delays stomach emptying: study seeks safe Pre-Surgery break
NCT ID NCT07506356
First seen Apr 03, 2026 · Last updated May 09, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study looks at how long people with type 2 diabetes need to stop taking their GLP-1 medication (like semaglutide) before surgery to ensure their stomach is empty. The drug slows stomach emptying, which can raise the risk of food or liquid entering the lungs during anesthesia. Researchers will use ultrasound to measure stomach volume in 38 participants after a 6-hour fast and 7 days after their last injection.
