Emergent obstetrical procedures may require general anaesthesia in parturients at full cervical dilatation or immediately after vaginal birth. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and the predictive factors of higher estimated gastric content in parturients at full cervical dilatation with epidural analgesia and allowed to drink during the labour, and to assess the ability of the antral area measured in the semirecumbent position (SR‐CSA) to identify higher estimated gastric content in this setting.
