Brief Summary

Introduction; Pre operative gastric ultrasonography is a newly developed tool used to evaluate gastric content and volume in assessing perioperative aspiration risk and guide anaesthetic management. Gastric antrum is the most amenable and most consistently identified region for sonographic examination during assessment even in empty state. Baseline gastric secretions and clear fluids i.e: water, apple juice and tea have hypoechoeic or anechoic appearance, whilst milk, thick fluids, or suspensions will have increased echogenicity. Evaluation with sonographic assessment were found to be accurately reflective of gastric content in various studies. In this study, healthy volunteers were recruited. They will be required to fast at least 8 hours prior to baseline gastric antrum ultrasonography assessment. Following that, they will require to drink 250ml glucose loaded drinks. Repeated Ultrasound assessment will be done after 1 hour of glucose loaded drink ingestion in Group 1 and after 2 hours in Group 2. Hypothesis of the study is there will be no significant different between ultrasound assessment between this 2 groups.
