Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonists: Anesthesia Considerations
This course gives anesthesia providers a clear, clinically focused framework for managing patients on GLP-1 receptor agonists in the perioperative setting. You’ll review the pharmacology behind their effects on glucose control, gastric motility, and satiety; understand how these agents alter aspiration risk, fasting strategy, and glycemic management; and apply current evidence-based guidelines—including pediatric and adolescent considerations—to safely plan, induce, and recover anesthesia in this rapidly growing patient population.
