Blood sugar check before surgery could prevent lung complications
NCT ID NCT07375680
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is looking at whether long-term blood sugar levels (HbA1c) affect how fast the stomach empties before surgery. Slow stomach emptying can increase the risk of stomach contents entering the lungs during anesthesia. Researchers will use ultrasound to measure stomach contents in 134 adults scheduled for elective surgery. The goal is to improve safety by identifying patients who may need extra precautions.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors better identify which patients are at risk for stomach contents entering the lungs during anesthesia, leading to safer surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for a link between blood sugar and stomach emptying, so it won't directly change patient care yet.
