Does my hospitalized patient need an NPO-after-midnight order preoperatively?

ESPEN practical guideline: Clinical nutrition in surgery – “Preoperative fasting from midnight is unnecessary in most patients. Patients undergoing surgery, who are considered to have no specific risk of aspiration, shall drink clear fluids until 2 h before anesthesia. Solids shall be allowed until 6 h before anesthesia.”

Pro-Con Debate: 1- vs 2-Hour Fast for Clear Liquids Before Anesthesia in Children.

Editorial: The rationale for the recommendations of the European Pediatric Fasting Guideline – “the authors of the 2021 ESAIC pediatric guideline have found reasons to recommend reductions to the minimum fasting times for infant formula to 4 h, for breast milk to 3 h and for clear fluids to 1 h”.

Comentário: Covid-19: Symptomatic infection with omicron variant is milder and shorter than with delta, study reports – The BMJ

Conteúdos relacionados:

Another study suggests a lower risk of hospitalization and death from infection with SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant vs. Delta.

Perspective: Challenges in inferring intrinsic severity of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant.

Early assessment of the clinical severity of the SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant in South Africa.

Cohort Study: Incidence rates and clinical outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection with the Omicron and Delta variants in children younger than 5 years in the US.

[Preprint] SARS-CoV-2 Omicron virus causes attenuated disease in mice and hamsters.

[Preprint] Study showed reduced clinical severity of Covid-19 patients admitted to hospitals in Gauteng, South Africa, during the Omicron-dominant fourth wave – “any combination of a less-virulent virus, comorbidities, high immunity from prior infection(s) or vaccination may be important contributors to this clinical presentation”.

Early data from South Africa hints Omicron variant may cause less severe Covid, but more research is needed.

Too early to tell, but preliminary information from doctors in South Africa suggests the new Covid variant Omicron may be associated with less severe disease.
