متن کامل[Use of ultrasound for gastric volume evaluation after ingestion of different volumes of isotonic solution].
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The current preoperative fasting guidelines allow fluid intake up to 2hours before surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gastric volume of volunteers after an overnight fast and compare it with the gastric volume 2hours after ingestion of 200 and 500mL of isotonic solution, by means of ultrasound assessment. METHOD Eighty volunteers underwent gastric ult...
متن کاملUltrasound Assessment of Endothelial Function in Children
Although the clinical complications of atherosclerosis arise from developed lesions in old age, the atherosclerotic disease is a lifelong process with roots in childhood.
