Gastric ultrasound to assess the prokinetic efficacy of erythromycin in a patient taking glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists slow gastric emptying and may increase aspiration risk. Recent guidelines suggest using prokinetic agents pre-operatively, but no studies have assessed the e...

Perioperative Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists (GLP-1RA) and Gastric Point Of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) – POCUS Journal

Patients on GLP-1 RA are rapidly increasing ⬆️
🎯 The only objective evaluation available is #gastricultrasound
