My mother Sally, of blessed memory, was absolutely convinced that if I (MY) went out to play with wet hair, I would catch a cold. I have no idea where or how this old wive’s tale (in Yiddish a “bubbameister”) came from, but it was “truth” in Sally’s home until her dying day. No amount of arguing or explaining that colds came from viruses would change her mind. Which brings us to preprocedural nil per os (NPO) guidelines. Are our fasting guidelines bubbameisters? Is it time to revisit them, and embrace more than 20 years of data demonstrating the safety of reduced fasting times?1
Yaster M, Galinkin J, Schreiner M. An Introduction to the Ethical Design, Conduct, and Analysis of Pediatric Clinical Trials. In: Andropolous D, Gregory G, eds. Gregory's Pediatric Anesthesia. 6th ed. Wiley-Blackwell; 2020:56-74:chap 4.


Because general anesthetics blunt or abolish protective reflexes, pre‐operative and pre-procedural fasting is employed to minimize gastric contents and in turn, decrease the risk of pulmonary aspiration (“Mendelson syndrome”).2 By and large fasting guidelines appear to have worked. Aspiration is extremely rare, however, our current concerns about aspiration may be out of proportion to the actual risk, particularly for clear liquids. Rebecca Isserman and I (LE) and our colleagues at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s published our experience with changing fasting guidelines for clear liquids to one hour.3  Making this a national guideline change is currently under discussion at the Society for Pediatric Anesthesia’s Quality and Safety Committee and at the ASA.4  Other organizations have already made this change.5, 6
Schmitz A, Schmidt AR. Can we use ultrasound examination of gastric content as a diagnostic test in clinical anaesthesia? Pediatric Anesthesia. 2019;29(2):112-113. doi:https://doi.org/10.1111/pan.13555


The article by Lee et al. from Columbia University’s Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital puts yet another nail in the NPO guideline coffin. The most current ASA based NPO guidelines (clear fluid intake for up to 2 hours, breast milk up to 4, infant formula up to 6, and milk or solid food for up to 6-8  hours) made no substantive changes to the guidelines previously published in 1999.7,8 Much evidence of the safety of reduced fasting times has been published over the last 20 plus years. In today’s PAAD, Lee, et al, used gastric ultrasound to measure gastric emptying time in formula fed infants “to support or refute current preprocedural NPO guidelines for neonates”. Their stated goal was to “optimize patient safety and well-being in addition to patient/parental satisfaction. [Our] hypothesis is that the gastric emptying time in healthy neonates after formula feeding is less than the current guideline of 6 h of fasting.”3 
Roberts RB, Shirley MA. Reducing the risk of acid aspiration during cesarean section. Anesthesia and analgesia. Nov-Dec 1974;53(6):859-68. doi:10.1213/00000539-197453060-00010


Indeed, their hypothesis was correct. Lee, et al. “found the time to return to baseline antral cross-sectional area was 92.9 ± 42.6 min in 46 healthy full-term neonates aged 0 to 5 days. The upper range of gastric emptying time was 150 min, while the upper limit at the 99% CI was 109.8 min. There were no significant differences in gastric emptying time in subgroup analyses according to sex or mode of delivery. These findings suggest that the current fasting guidelines (6 hours) may be more stringent than necessary by more than 3 h”. They conclude: “gastric emptying time, as assessed by serial ultrasound after formula feeding in healthy full-term neonates, was determined to never exceed 2.5 h using upper range or 99% CI.” Intuitively, this makes sense and explains why babies feed about every 2.5- 3 hours!
DM, Rocke DA, Brock-Utne JG, Marszalek A, Engelbrecht HE. Critical volume for pulmonary acid aspiration: reappraisal in a primate model. British journal of anaesthesia. Aug 1990;65(2):248-50. doi:10.1093/bja/65.2.248


The findings in this study validate the guidelines long used (without reported adverse events) at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia: formula fed neonates may safely feed up to 4 hours prior to anesthesia. Changing fasting guidelines will be a difficult and slow process: the bubbameister lives on in our regulatory and professional society guidelines.  Until our professional societies embrace the abundance of evidence accumulated over the last 20-30 years, and put these changes into writing, individual practitioners and groups may be exposing themselves to legal risk.  On the other hand, it may be time to pick up our pitchforks and storm the castle to force these changes.
