Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
With this study we do hope to further demonstrate the safety of preoperative consumption of clear fluids up to two hours preoperatively. For this purpose we will collect the gastric fluid during gastroscopy for measuring the volume and pH.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
A second aim is to analyze a possible difference in the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) between the two groups in correlation to the different fasting periods.
