Description
This lecture explores the implications of GLP-1 receptor antagonists on anesthesia practice. With the growing use of these agents for type 2 diabetes and weight management, anesthesia providers must understand their impact on gastric emptying, aspiration risk, perioperative fasting guidelines, and medication timing. The session will review current evidence, perioperative considerations, and recommendations for optimizing patient safety and outcomes in individuals taking GLP-1 receptor antagonists.
