NCT ID:
NCT03685435
Brief Summary:
Using bedside ultrasound, the investigators will examine gastric content in non-fasting patients assigned to rapid sequence intubation (RSI). The procedure will be done immediately before intubation. The percentage of non-fasting patients who actually have gastric content will be determined.
Identifying gastric content is critical because presence increases the risk of pulmonary aspiration during intubation.
Detailed Description:
Quantitative gastric content will be registered by measuring the cross section area of antrum using bedside ultrasound. The area and the patients age will be applied to estimate gastric volume.
