Filter by:The objectives of the study are to 1) Conduct telemetric biosignals (EDA, ECG, and EMG) recording in healthy controls and IBS participants experiencing cutaneous and visceral pain; and 2) Validate the OIME index as a biomarker for quantifying pain in IBS participants and its capability to assess the treatment of IBS pain via an ambulatory trial.
This is a prospective observational study collecting long-term clinical data and samples for research in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients with gut inflammation and a control cohort of pediatric patients with disorders of the brain-gut interactions (DBGI) with no detectable gut inflammation.

Upper abdominal pain (UAP) is a common symptom and frequently the reason to visit the hospital. The prevalence of epigastric pain in the Dutch population is estimated to be as high as 37%. Moreover, Dutch hospitals yearly record >100.000 diagnoses related to UAP. In most patients, UAP can be attributed to symptomatic (functional) dyspepsia (FD), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or uncomplicated gallstone disease (cholecystolithiasis), with a prevalence in the general population of 20-30%, 20%, and 6-9%, respectively. However, these conditions may have overlapping symptom patterns and generally affect similar populations. which contributes to ineffective (diagnostic) interventions. Patients are generally not aware of the similarity of symptoms and the poor outcome of some treatments. Education positively influences patients' self-management and health judgment. In a recent open-label, multicentre trial the effectiveness of web-based patients' education is applied to reduce overuse of upper gastrointestinal endoscopies in patients with dyspepsia. This study illustrated that an web-based education tool safely reduced 40% in upper gastrointestinal endoscopies. Lifestyle interventions (such as change of diet and/or physical activity) are widely incorporated in treatment programs for cardio-vascular diseases including diabetes mellitus and obesity. An web-based education tool on upper abdominal pain and other complaints combined with a lifestyle interventions for patients may be an effective treatment option for this large group of patients. This study investigates the potential of an individualized web-based education tool as intervention for patients with functional dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome and uncomplicated symptomatic cholecystolithiasis with the possibility to visit the Prevention and Lifestyle clinic (RELIEF pathway). The RELIEF pathway aims to reduce unnecessary health care utilization and, secondly, to maintain and improve quality of life by educating patients on lifestyle improvement.
The study will systematically evaluate how an emergency manual-a collection of checklists and fact sheets-affects the performance of resuscitation teams during the management of priority one patients in an emergency department.
Gastrointestinal symptoms are commonly reported in as much as 65% of people with CF even independent of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) and the most frequent of these symptoms are bloating/distension, flatulence, abdominal pain and bowel habit changes. An alteration in the intestinal microbiome due to intestinal dysmotility, inflammation or other changes including pH changes in the intestine related to CFTR gene mutation may cause intestinal dysbiosis leading to a bacterial overgrowth in the proximal small intestine which may explain some of the findings of distension and bloating in CF. Our small pilot study aims to investigate use of the only FDA-approved antibiotic, rifaximin for a GI syndrome- IBS, to treat bloating and global GI symptoms in CF patients with bloating and distension. Our goal is to recruit patients >12 years and age/sex matched into rifaximin and placebo arms with total of 100 recruited subjects recruited.
This is a prospective multicenter pediatric double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled, parallel group clinical trial intended to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a combined probiotic (LGG and L. reuteri LMG P-27481) in the prevention of antibiotic associated diarrhea and gastrointestinal symptoms in hospitalised children treated with antibiotics for proven or suspected bacterial infection.
This single-center, randomized, controlled, quadruple-blinded, superiority trial is performed to test the hypothesis that children with IBS and FAP-NOS who receive a low-FODMAP diet will have a lower mean abdominal pain intensity score compared with those who receive a regular diet after 4 weeks of intervention.
cross sectional study to detect frequency of functional gastrointestinal disorders among schhol aged children complaining of recurrent abdominal pain
Adolescents and young adults with eating disorders undergoing refeeding on an inpatient unit often experience abdominal pain and anxiety either as a result of their medical condition or as an expected side effect of nutritional rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to assess if VR (Virtual Reality) mindfulness therapy is more or as effective as the standard of care (supportive care such as aromatherapy, heat packs, distraction, and nausea bands) for treating and/or preventing anxiety and pain in patients with eating disorders during the re-nourishment process. The anticipated primary outcome will be reduction of abdominal pain and anxiety with utilization of this intervention.
