What this trial means for you

This study is recruiting now at 1 US site. It's studying see the official record for gastric retention.

What participants typically get: study medication (or placebo, if the trial uses one) and study-related medical care at no cost, plus close monitoring. Compensation for time and travel varies by study, ask the site. Note that in many trials you can't choose your treatment group, and some participants receive a placebo.

The study, in the sponsor's words

This study will enroll patients 18 years and older who are taking a GLP-1/GIP medication and 1) are scheduled for elective surgery and meet ASA fasting guidelines (nothing by mouth for at least 8 hours prior), or 2) scheduled elective colonoscopy and have been on a clear liquid diet for at least 24 hours prior. Participants will have a gastric ultrasound prior to surgery to measure any retained gastric contents. The purpose of this study is to determine if people taking GLP-1 receptor agonists and who fast normally are at an equal risk for having retained gastric contents after appropriately fasting for surgery, compared to patients who are on a liquid only diet for 24 hours prior to surgery.
