Diabetic patients are prone to have gastroparesis with increased gastric content. A full stomach is a well-known risk factor for aspiration in the perioperative period and the development of postoperative pulmonary complications.Little is known about the pathophysiology of gastroparesis in diabetics. Duodenal micro-inflammation due to dysbiosis is one of the pathological signatures of gut-brain axis alterations thought to be responsible for gastroparesis. Probiotics helps in maintaining gut microbiota and thus in preventing gastroparesis. Gastric ultrasound (USG) is non-invasive, easy to perform at the bedside with minimal discomfort,and avoids radiation exposure. It also provides reliable quantitative and qualitative information about the nature of gastric contents before anesthesia. Thus, it is a useful tool for assessing the risk of pulmonary aspiration, which has greatly altered clinical management during anesthesia. Gastric volume measured by USG is a good parameter to establish gastric emptying. Thus we hypothesize that preoperative ingestion of probiotics will decrease residual gastric volume.
