Peter Frykholm, PhD
Consultant, Paediatric Section, Dept of Anaesth and Intensive Care, Uppsala, Sweden
BIO: My key research interests are improving perioperative paediatric anaesthesia practice with special focus on preoperative fasting. I am the head of the ESAIC task force for preoperative fasting in children which has published a new European guideline and continues with multicentre collaborative projects such as the EUROFAST audit. In the past, I have studied cerebral ischaemia, optimisation of ventilation during anaesthesia and intensive care and the physiology and implementation of jet ventilation. I have also put some effort into airway management and vascular access, having co-authored national guidelines and reviews on these topics.
Objectives:
1. How can gastric emptying studies lead to new fasting guidelines?
2. What are the pros and cons of reducing the minimum preoperative fasting time?
3. How can we use gastric ultrasound for clinical decision-making?
