Abstract
The perioperative management of patients using glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists remains a topic of debate. While several multisociety statements have been published recently, the recommendations vary significantly in terms of medication management and preoperative fasting protocols for these patients. This document represents a multidisciplinary consensus statement led by the Society for Perioperative Assessment and Quality Improvement (SPAQI). It provides updated recommendations based on a modified Delphi process and supported by a systematic review of the current literature. The recommendations address management of the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists perioperatively, and preoperative fasting times for both solids and liquids. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW PROTOCOL: PROSPERO (CRD42023438624).
