GLP-1 RA Cessation and Gastric Ultrasound Findings

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This prospective observational study will evaluate the association between the time interval since the last dose of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and residual gastric contents before elective surgery. Adult patients receiving GLP-1 RAs and scheduled for elective non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia will undergo preoperative point-of-care gastric ultrasound. The study will assess whether longer GLP-1 RA cessation intervals are associated with lower ultrasound-estimated gastric volume and a lower frequency of high-risk gastric contents. Body mass index will also be evaluated as a potential modifier of this association.

Conditions

  • Residual Gastric Contents
  • Delayed Gastric Emptying

GLP-1 RA Cessation Interval

Observed exposure defined as the number of days between the participant's last glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist dose and elective surgery. Participants were categorized according to time since last dose: 3 days or less, 4 to 7 days, and 8 days or more. No GLP-1 receptor agonist was assigned, administered, continued, or discontinued by the study protocol; medication management followed usual clinical care.
