Summary

In the new guideline from ESAIC breast-feeding should be encouraged until 3 hours before anesthesia. This recommendation was based mainly on gastric emptying studies in neonates with small sample sizes and single center experience.To address the lack of high quality evidence for this recommendation, the ESAIC task force for preoperative fasting plans perform a multicenter RCT omparing 4 vs 3 hours of preoperative fasting for breast milk.

The aim of the present pilot-study is to provide data for sample size calculation and feasibility for the multicenter trial.
