Postoperative Aspiration Pneumonia Among Adults Using GLP-1 Receptor Agonists
This cohort study found no significant association between the preoperative use of GLP-1 RAs and short-term postoperative aspiration pneumonia despite growing concerns about the adverse effects of these medications after surgery. This finding suggests that it may be beneficial to reassess the preoperative withholding guidelines for GLP-1 RAs.
