Summary

This study looked at 90 pregnant women having planned C-sections to see if the length of time they fasted before surgery changed their stomach volume. Researchers used ultrasound to measure stomach size and checked for nausea and vomiting after surgery. The goal was to find better fasting guidelines to improve safety and comfort.
