Summary

Research in developing patient fasting guidelines was developed years ago. On a physiological basis, patients with a longer fasting time may have less residual gastric content and lower risk of pulmonary aspiration. The recent Practice Guidelines for Preoperative Fasting and the Use of Pharmacologic Agents to Reduce the Risk of Pulmonary Aspiration of The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) was published in March 2017. Current practice consists of 2-hour fasting period for clear oral fluid (including water, pulp-free juice and tea or coffee without milk), 4- hour fasting period for breast milk and 6-hour fasting period for non-human milk and solid food. However, there are only few supportive and suggestive scientific evidences. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the current clinical practice guidelines for preoperative fasting to enhance the quality of pediatric anesthesia care and promote patient safety.The investigators plan to enroll adults aged 18-60 years, who are scheduled for esophago-gastro-duodenoscopy (EGD), in order to study the effects of fasting time and the actual intragastric volume which may help us establish a comprehensive fasting guideline.
