Gastroparesis

Brief summary

Investigators assess the gastric contents by ultrasonography in fasted patients undergoing cholecystectomy.

Detailed description

Investigators evaluate the gastric volume through cross sectional area and amount of clear fluid using Perlas grade by ultrasound in the supine and right lateral position of fasted patients undergoing cholecystectomy. Full stomach is regarded if solid gastric contents are detected or clear fluid is more than 1.5 ml/kg. The frequency of full stomach will be analyzed.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence of full stomachBefore the induction of anesthesiaThe incidence of full stomach is assessed by using ultrasonography.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Cross sectional area of the stomachBefore the induction of anesthesiaThe cross sectional area of the stomach is assessed by using ultrasonography in the supine and right lateral positions.
Volume of stomachBefore the induction of anesthesiaThe volume of stomach is assessed using the following formula; volume of stomach (mL) = 27.0 + 14.6 x cross-sectional area (right lateral position) - 1.28 x age.
Type of gastric contentsBefore the induction of anesthesiaThe type of gastric contents is assessed using ultrasonography.
