Immediately after tracheal intubation, an 18-French multiorifice Salem tube was inserted and gastric contents were aspirated in five different patient positions; during this time, the patient's epigastrium was massaged and the tube was moved backward and forward in the stomach. The relationship between the antral area and the volume of aspirated gastric contents was analyzed, as was the performance of ultrasonographic measurement of antral area for the diagnosis of risk stomach.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n The measurement of antral CSA was performed on 180 of 183 patients. A significant positive relationship between antral CSA and aspirated fluid volume was found. The cutoff value of antral CSA of 340 mm(2) for the diagnosis of risk stomach was associated with a sensitivity of 91% and a specificity of 71%. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the diagnosis of risk stomach was 90%.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n The ultrasonographic measurement of antral CSA could be an important help for the anesthesiologist in minimizing the risk of pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents due to general anesthesia.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1097\/aln.0b013e31820dee48","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,1]],"date-time":"2011-03-01T19:56:47Z","timestamp":1299009407000},"page":"1086-1092","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":318,"title":["Clinical Assessment of the Ultrasonographic Measurement of Antral Area for Estimating Preoperative Gastric Content and Volume"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"114","author":[{"given":"Lionel","family":"Bouvet","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Staff Anesthesiologist, University of Lyon, Claude Bernard Lyon 1, INSERM UMR 865, and Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, \u00c9douard Herriot Hospital, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Lyon, France."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jean-Xavier","family":"Mazoit","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Staff Anesthesiologist."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dominique","family":"Chassard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor of Anesthesiology, University of Lyon, Claude Bernard Lyon 1, and Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Femme M\u00e8re Enfant Hospital, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Bron, France."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bernard","family":"Allaouchiche","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor of Anesthesiology, University of Lyon, Claude Bernard Lyon 1, and Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, \u00c9douard Herriot Hospital, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Lyon, France."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emmanuel","family":"Boselli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Staff Anesthesiologist."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dan","family":"Benhamou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor of Anesthesiology, Paris-Sud University and Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, University Hospital of Bic\u00eatre, Assistance Publique - H\u00f4pitaux de Paris, Le Kremlin-Bic\u00eatre, France."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-18-20251014"},{"key":"R2-18-20251014"},{"key":"R3-18-20251014"},{"key":"R4-18-20251014"},{"key":"R5-18-20251014"},{"key":"R6-18-20251014"},{"key":"R7-18-20251014"},{"key":"R8-18-20251014"},{"key":"R9-18-20251014"},{"key":"R10-18-20251014"},{"key":"R11-18-20251014"},{"key":"R12-18-20251014"},{"key":"R13-18-20251014"},{"key":"R14-18-20251014"},{"key":"R15-18-20251014"},{"key":"R16-18-20251014"},{"key":"R17-18-20251014"},{"key":"R18-18-20251014"},{"key":"R19-18-20251014"},{"key":"R20-18-20251014"},{"key":"R21-18-20251014"}],"container-title":["Anesthesiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/pubs.asahq.org\/anesthesiology\/article-pdf\/114\/5\/1086\/254607\/0000542-201105000-00018.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/00000542-201105000-00016","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,14]],"date-time":"2025-10-14T16:00:52Z","timestamp":1760457652000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/00000542-201105000-00016"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,1]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2011]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/aln.0b013e31820dee48","relation":{},"ISSN":["0003-3022"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0003-3022","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,1]]}}}
