Abstract
GlP-1 receptor agonists are a class of medications that are becoming increasingly popular. Large trials have shown that their use provides reliable weight loss in obese patients and improved glycemic control in diabetic patients. Its use also has broader implications for overall metabolic health and has been shown to improve cardiovascular outcomes in high-risk populations. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptors cause multiple effects in the body through stimulation of receptors expressed in a broad range of tissues including the pancreas, liver, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, heart, endothelium, muscle, and brain. For the anesthesia professionals the effects of these medications on gastric emptying is important.
