Actual (reported)The aim of this study is to perform bedside gastric point of care ultrasound (POCUS) exams to assess the gastric volume and content (clear liquids vs solid food) perioperatively in patients who take glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonist medications compared to patients who do not take GLP-1 agonists.

Actual (reported)incidence of delayed gastric emptying
delayed gastric emptying is defined by the presence of either solid food, thick liquids or a specific volume (\>1.5 ml/kg) of clear liquids on gastric ultrasound.
This will be measured pre-operatively in the holding room area.
Nothing by mouth (NPO) intervals
This will be measured pre-operatively in the holding room area.
Presence of gastric peristalsis
This will be measured pre-operatively in the holding room area.
The control group will be comprised of patients who are not currently taking any GLP-1 agonist medications. Controls will receive the ultrasound exam to assess stomach contents.
The GLP-1 agonist intake group will be comprised of patients who are currently taking any GLP-1 agonist medications. This group will receive the ultrasound exam to assess stomach contents.
A gastric ultrasound is a simple, fast, non-invasive bedside diagnostic test that provides a qualitative and quantitative assessment of gastric contents. There are no known risks of a gastric ultrasound exam.
Registry-reported names are shown in full. Names without a link have not yet been matched to a Syfrah profile.
The study population will be comprised of patients scheduled for surgery at HSS who meet the following inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria.
