The purpose of this study is to find out whether the current method of calculating stomach volume using ultrasound is accurate in patients who have had a previous gastric sleeve procedure. This will help in determining whether ultrasound can be used to determine whether this population has fasted for long enough before surgery.
Thank you for your interest, but this study is not currently enrolling.
