Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Pulmonary aspiration is a rare but serious complication that can result in 57% mortality and 14% permanent damage. Fasting rules (solid foods 6-8 hours, clear liquids 2 hours) determined by anesthesia associations are applied to prevent pulmonary aspiration by reducing gastric volume. Gastric volume (≥ 0.5 mL/kg) and pH (\<2.5) values are shown to be determinants in the occurrence of pulmonary complications .

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The hypothesis of this study was that preprocedure candy and chewing gum use may have no effects on gastric residual volume and pH. For this purpose, we analyzed the gastric residual volume and gastric pH values of patients who were given gum and candy before the procedure.
