my aunt is scheduled for laparoscopic gallstone removal surgery tomorrow at 4 pm can she have something light like biscuits at 7 am or does she need to stay on an empty stomach until after the surgery
No, your aunt should not eat anything at 7 am. For laparoscopic gallstone removal surgery, patients typically need to be NPO (nothing by mouth) for a specific period before the procedure, usually around 6 hours. Since her surgery is scheduled for 4 pm, she will likely need to stop eating and drinking well before 7 am. It's crucial to follow the specific instructions provided by her surgeon and the hospital about fasting times.
