Abstract

The prophylactic efficacy of pre-operative antacid administration was shown by comparing the pH and volumes of gastric contents in 50 female patients treated with 10 ml of Mist. Magnesium Trisilicate B.P.C. with that of 50 controls. Routine antacid prophylaxis was advocated for all patients undergoing pelvic laparoscopy as intra-operative conditions increase the risk of pulmonary acid aspiration.
