Rationale: Gastric ultrasound is a quick and non-invasive tool to evaluate gastric content.
Emptying of gastric content can be affected after abdominal surgery leading to the inability of
tolerating oral foods. Gastric content can be assessed by gastric ultrasound and nurses were
recently trained to do so in healthy volunteers; however, feasibility of nurse-performed gastric
ultrasound after major abdominal surgery is not investigated yet.
Objective: To investigate the feasibility of nu
