The Semaglutide Study

Fasting

The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the incidence of "full stomach" in fasting elective surgical patients on Semaglutide medication. The other goals are to study the impact of the time interval since the last dose of the medication on the incidence of full stomach and to develop evidence-based recommendations for the perioperative management of these patients.
