Why the study?
Does preoperative oral carbohydrates improve feelings of thirst, hunger, and mouth dryness in patients undergoing ESD surgery under general anesthesia compared to fasting?
Does preoperative oral carbohydrates improve feelings of thirst, hunger, and mouth dryness in patients undergoing ESD surgery under general anesthesia compared to fasting?
Preoperative oral carbohydrates improve patient comfort and reduce gastric peristalsis during ESD surgery without increasing regurgitation risk.
Oral administration of carbohydrates preoperatively instead of fasting improves the feelings of thirst, hunger, and mouth dryness in patients following ESD surgery without enhancing risk of regurgitation. And, avoiding preoperative fasting with POC can decrease the degree of gastric peristalsis that may facilitate the successful completion of ESD surgery.
