GLP-1 medication stomach emptying study
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses an ultrasound to look at how full your stomach is after taking GLP-1 medications for diabetes or weight loss. It will help doctors understand if current fasting guidelines are safe before surgery or a colonoscopy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at whether stopping a type 2 diabetes medication called GLP-1 receptor agonists for two weeks before an upper endoscopy can reduce the risk of food staying in the stomach during the procedure. If you are scheduled for an upper endoscopy and take this medication, this trial may help make your procedure safer and more comfortable.
This study looks at whether nerve damage from diabetes affects how long semaglutide (a diabetes medicine) stays in the stomach, which can cause stomach retention. It may help doctors understand who is more likely to have this side effect.
This study looks at how a newly started GLP-1 medicine (commonly used for weight loss or diabetes) changes the amount of food left in your stomach and how fast it empties. The goal is to understand these effects better, which may help improve safety and dosing.
This study looks at how GLP-1 medications affect the time it takes for your stomach to empty before anesthesia. It may help doctors decide if you need to take special precautions before your surgery.
This study uses an ultrasound to check how fast your stomach empties food. It looks at people with type 2 diabetes who have been taking a GLP-1 medication for at least three months.
This study looks at whether a common diabetes medication (GLP-1) affects how much food stays in your stomach before surgery. It aims to make anesthesia safer by understanding stomach content.
