Stomach ultrasound before planned C-section in women with gestational diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound to measure stomach contents before a planned C-section. It compares women with gestational diabetes to those without, to see if their stomachs empty differently. This could help make anesthesia safer during delivery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses ultrasound to look at your stomach before a planned C-section to help make anesthesia safer and more comfortable.
This study uses an ultrasound to check the stomach contents of people with type 2 diabetes before elective surgery. It aims to understand if diabetes affects how fast the stomach empties, which could help prevent complications during surgery.
This study uses ultrasound to check how full your stomach is, which helps plan for safe anesthesia during delivery. It is for pregnant women at high risk who are admitted to the hospital at 28 weeks or more.
This study tests whether ultrasound scans of the stomach before surgery help keep children safe during anesthesia. Researchers will measure how full the stomach is to make sure children are ready for surgery.
This study looks at how the amount of fluid in the stomach at the start of anesthesia (before surgery) compares between people with diabetes and those without diabetes. It helps doctors understand if diabetes affects stomach contents, which could improve safety during procedures.
This trial uses a stomach ultrasound (called gastric POCUS) to check if your stomach is empty before surgery. It is for patients taking GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic, Wegovy, or similar) to help make sure it is safe to proceed with anesthesia.
