Summary

This study will compare two groups of people having an endoscopy: those who stopped taking semaglutide for one week beforehand, and those who never took it. The goal is to see if stopping the drug reduces leftover food or liquid in the stomach, which can make the procedure safer and clearer. About 418 adults will take part, and researchers will also check for breathing problems during the procedure.

Active substance
semaglutide
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better guidelines on when to stop semaglutide before procedures like endoscopy, making them safer.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks at a short-term effect and may not apply to all patients or procedures.
