Brief Summary  

This randomised controlled trial aims to evaluate and compare the preoperative gastric volume in patients undergoing elective intracranial neurosurgery under two different fasting protocols: the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol and the traditional protocol. Gastric volume will be assessed using ultrasonography, and correlated with fasting duration, tumour location, co morbidities, and intra operative blood glucose levels. The study seeks to determine whether ERAS protocols, which include preoperative carbohydrate loading and shorter fasting durations, impact gastric emptying and aspiration risk in neurosurgical patients. This has the potential to improve peri operative safety and recovery by individualising preoperative fasting strategies.
