Abstract
Preoperative fasting guidelines are designed to minimize the risk of pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents. As pulmonary aspiration is a rare occurrence, however, few evidence-based recommendations for ideal fasting intervals exist. An understanding of the research involved in the creation of these guidelines is useful in ensuring the maximum safety of patients while minimizing the disadvantages of prolonged fasting.
