Sponsor's own description

Shortening fasting times in young children undergoing general anesthesia aims to avoid the detrimental effects of prolonged fasting. However, the quantities of acidified milk that might be expected in the stomach following a shortened fast have not yet been fully investigated. The role of gastric ultrasound in quantifying particulate gastric content is not fully understood.
