However, preliminary data indicate that perioperative loss of nutrition and fluids is likely harmful. This study intends to characterize perioperative fasting practices and their potential effects on clinical outcomes through possible effects on patient well-being (anxiety, hunger, thirst), physiology (hypovolemia, hypotension), perioperative aspiration, etc. The research team hypothesized that in addition to known adverse effects on patients' well-being, prolonged preoperative fasting adversely affects circulating blood volume-related (hypotension, decreased urine output etc.) and glucose metabolism-related (e.g., hypo\u002Fhyperglycemia) perioperative physiology. The investigators will also test for an association between the duration of preoperative fasting and the risk of perioperative pulmonary aspiration.\n\nAdditional knowledge on the potential adverse effects of preoperative fasting will inform preoperative fasting policies and research interventions that are relevant to hundreds of millions of patients subjected to preoperative\u002Fpreprocedural fasting worldwide each year.",[24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32],"Anesthesia","Sedation","Monitored Anesthesia Care","Procedure","Surgery, Day","Surgery","Surgery Scheduled","Fasting Before Operation","Aspiration; Gastric Contents, Anesthesia",[34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43],"preoperative fasting","perioperative pulmonary aspiration","perioperative complications","postoperative nausea and vomiting","perioperative hypoglycemia","perioperative hyperglycemia","perioperative hypotension","myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery","perioperative acute kidney injury","clear liquid fasting","RECRUITING","2026-04-02",{"date":47,"type":48},"2026-04-08","ACTUAL",{"date":50,"type":48},"2016-01-01",{"date":52,"type":20},"2030-12-31",{"name":54,"class":55},"Massachusetts General Hospital","OTHER"]
