Core Tip |
This is the first study to describe the frequency of retained gastric food contents on esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) in a cirrhotic population. Our study reveals that cirrhotic patients are five times more likely to have retained food on EGD than controls. Additionally, this study investigates risk factors for gastric food retention in cirrhosis. Associated factors include age younger than 60, diabetes mellitus, opioid use, thrombocytopenia, and higher Child-Pugh class. A novel finding is the fact that gastric retention is associated with decompensated cirrhosis, as can be elucidated from the association with thrombocytopenia and higher Child-Pugh class. |
