First seen Mar 21, 2026 · Last updated Jun 11, 2026 · Updated 16 times
Summary
This study will use ultrasound to measure stomach volume in 220 adults (with and without diabetes) before elective surgery. The goal is to see if standard fasting guidelines (no food for 6-8 hours, clear liquids for 2 hours) are enough to ensure an empty stomach in diabetic patients, who may have slower stomach emptying. Results could help tailor fasting instructions for better safety.
