Evaluation of Antral Ultrasonography for Full Stomach Diagnosis Before Pediatric Surgical Emergencies

October 14, 2016 updated by: Olivier MAUPAIN, Hôpital Necker-Enfants Malades
This study evaluates antral ultrasonography for the diagnosis of full stomach before surgical emergencies in pediatric population. Preoperative ultrasonographic antral evaluation is compared to peroperative gastric aspirate with nasogastric tube.
