Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome will be to observe the quantitative and qualitative change in gastric antrum as assessed by the US of gastric antrum to estimate gastric volume after standard dose of metoclopramide ie calculation of CSA in right lateral and supine positionTimepoint: baseline and 30 minutes after intervention

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.Incidence of complete gastric emptying 2.Incidence of episodes of intraoperative and postoperative nausea and vomiting after gynaecological surgeries correlated with Metoclopramide administration and gastric volume 3.Adverse outcomes-Number of adverse events like abdominal cramping, extrapyramidal symptoms between the two group Timepoint: 24 hours after administration of drug
