First seen Feb 20, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a stomach ultrasound can accurately measure the amount and type of stomach contents in children (ages 0-17) who have been injured and need urgent surgery. The goal is to help doctors choose the safest way to manage the child's airway during anesthesia and reduce the risk of aspiration (stomach contents entering the lungs). The study will compare ultrasound measurements with actual stomach fluid drained during surgery.
