Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Children between 0-18 years of age and ASA I-II patients will be included in the study.
Exclusion criteria
* Patients over 18 years of age, * ASA-III and above patients, * patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction, * patients who cannot assume the lateral decubitus position for gastric -ultrasound measurements, * those who have had previous lower esophageal or gastric surgery, * those who do not comply with institutional fasting guidelines, * those with concomitant systemic diseases affecting gastric emptying, * those with a high body mass index (BMI) \> 40 kg/m2, * those with gastroesophageal reflux or aspiration risk factors, and emergency cases with delayed gastric emptying despite appropriate fasting time will not be included in the study.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Qualitative assessment of residual gastric fluid volume | preoperative evaluation in the operating room | Grade 0: Defined as no contents visible in the antrum, the stomach is empty and the volume of the contents approaches zero. Grade 1: Visible clear fluid with a fluid volume of \<1.5 mL/kg. Grade 2: Defined as visible clear fluid with a fluid volume of \>1.5 mL/kg in both the supine and lateral decubitus positions. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Gastric content volume | preoperative evaluation in the operating room | It will be calculated using a mathematical model validated in children aged 11 months to 18 years. Volume(mL/kg) = \[-7.8 + 0.035 × antral area measured in lateral decubitus position (mm2) + 0.127 × age (months)\] / body weight (kg). The R² value for this model was 0.60. |
| Antral cross-sectional area | preoperative evaluation in the operating room | In both supine and lateral decubitus positions, between antral contractions, serosa to serosa, measuring the length diameter (D1) and the anteroposterior diameter (D2); Antral area = (π × D1 × D2) / 4 will be measured using the formula. |
