Effect of Miralax NPO Time on Residual Gastric Volumes and Bowel Preparation
Sponsor: Stanford University
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess differences in residual gastric volumes after stopping Miralax ingestion at different time points (2, 4, 6 hours) prior to anesthesia induction and compare it to the control (current institutional standard of care where no Miralax is given on the day of surgery).
