NCT03217630

Brief Summary

This is a prospective cohort study. The main objective is to compare the prevalence of a "full stomach" using gastric ultrasound technique, in elective surgical patients with diabetes mellitus compared to non-diabetic controls following the present fasting guidelines (2 h after clear liquid and 6h after a light meal). For patients with a full stomach or intermediate stomach, an consecutive ultrasound scan is performed every 10 min,until empty stomachstomach contents are detected to determine the mean gastric emptying time for clear liquid and light meal, and to investigate the risk factors for delayed stomach emptying in diabetic patients by logistic regression analysis .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Prevalence of full stomach

    The frequency of a "full stomach" in the diabetic population compared to a non-diabetic control population at 2h after ingesting clear liquid or 6h after light meal.

    one day

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean gastric emptying time of clear liquid and light meal

    one day

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Risk factors of delayed stomach empty in diabetic patients

    one day

Study Arms (2)

Diabetic patients

Other: Fasting 2 h after clear liquid or 6h after a light meal

Non-diabetic patients

Other: Fasting 2 h after clear liquid or 6h after a light meal

Interventions

The fasting time for all patients is 2 h after clear liquid or 6h after a light meal, then gastric ultrasound examination is performed.

Study Population

Study participants will be diabetic and non-diabetic patients who are admitted to the surgical department and scheduled to undergo elective surgical procedures. 100 participants will be recruited in total.

You may qualify if:

  • diabetes (two fasting plasma glucose concentration≥7mmol/L or casual plasma glucose concentration≥11.1mmol/L);
  • age≥18 yr; ASA physical status I-III;
  • body mass index \<35kg/m2;
  • who are admitted to the surgical department;
  • who are able to understand the rationale of the study and provide informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • pregnancy;
  • a history of upper gastrointestinal disease or previous surgery on the oesophagus, stomach or upper abdomen;
  • documented abnormalities of the upper gastrointestinal tract such as gastric tumors;
  • recent upper gastrointestinal bleeding (within the preceding 1 month);
  • taking medicines that may delay gastric emptying(e.g., anticholinergic agents).
  • hypothyroidism.
