Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
There is a growing interest in the use of bedside ultrasonography to assess gastric content and volume. It has been suggested that the gastric antrum in particular can be assessed reliably by sonography.
hence, this study will be conducted to assess the gastric volume and content with the help of ultrasound in fasted pediatric patients scheduled for elective surgeries which will help to detect accuracy of preoperative fasting hours.
