New tool could prevent dangerous stomach complications during sedated procedures
NCT ID NCT07104214
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to develop a simple tool to predict whether a person's stomach will still have food or liquid in it before a sedated endoscopy. Having a full stomach during sedation raises the risk of serious complications like choking. Researchers will study 5,000 adults to identify factors that slow stomach emptying and create a risk score to guide safer care.
