Abstract

Recently, there has been increased interest in the relationship between glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, delayed gastric emptying, and subsequent risk of aspiration in the perioperative setting. This case illustrates how gastric ultrasound can be incorporated at the bedside to assess the risk of aspiration in patients taking this type of medication for diabetes or weight loss and guide clinical management and anesthetic technique to reduce the risk of aspiration.
