Ultrasound Assessed Gastric Volume in the Fasted Pediatric Cerebral Palsy Patients

December 22, 2021 updated by: JiWon Han, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital

Ultrasound Assessment of Gastric Volume and Aspiration Risk Evaluation in the Fasted Pediatric Cerebral Palsy Patients.

In patients with cerebral palsy, delayed gastric emptying and esophageal sphincter dysfunction are very commonly observed.

Pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents causes aspiration pneumonia, which greatly affects patients' prognosis, including hospital stay and mortality.

In the case of patients with cerebral palsy, there is a limitation in respiratory function, so more attention is required.

Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the risk of aspiration by measuring gastric volume after fasting for surgery in children with cerebral palsy.
