Routine point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) assessment of gastric antral content in traumatic emergency surgical patients for prevention of aspiration pneumonitis: an observational clinical trial.

This reflects the importance of routine point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) assessment of gastric antral contents in traumatic emergency surgical patients for the prevention of aspiration pneumonitis. Despite the fact that the statistical difference between the predicted volume in the RLD position and volume in the nasogastric tube was highly significant, a good clinical correlation was documented between them, as shown in Table 5 .
