Filter by:Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) increases gastrointestinal motility, which influences feelings of fullness and satiety. By understanding the differences in gastric emptying (GE) between patients with sufficient weight loss (Total weight loss [TWL] > 35%) and insufficient weight loss (TWL < 25%), better insight in the aetiology of weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy may be obtained. GE will be measured with scintigraphy and MRI.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the gastric emptying in adult patients that are going to operatin theatre due to an abdominal acute disease, for instance, intestinal obstruction or cholecystitis. This kind of patients are traditionally considered as a full stomach and the induction of anesthesia include rapid sequence intubation (RSI) in order to decrease the risk of aspiration . However, image technologies, like echography, allow the visualization of the stomach and to measure the amount and characteristics of the content lodged in the stomach. This information is vital to decide if RSI is necesary or not. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What is the percentages of full stomach in patient who come to the operating room due an abodiminal acute disease? - Are different variables, namely, time since diagnosis, use of antibiotics or non steroidal antiinflamatory drugs related with the content of the stomach? Participants will be evaluated with ecography to determinate the amount of content of the stomach before the surgery in the operating room.
The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of the meals moderated by fat and carbohydrate (CHO) quality along with varying macronutrient distribution (CHO: fat) on gut physiology and metabolic outcomes using the human postprandial model with healthy subjects. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. How does meal composition with different polyunsaturated/saturated (P/S) ratio, glycemic index and macronutrient quantity affect lipemia and glycemia? 2. How does meal composition with different P/S ratio, Glycemic index and macronutrient quantity affect gastric emptying?
This study aims to compare the effect of meals high in protein, fat and carbohydrate but equal in energy and volume on energy intake, perceived appetite and gastric emptying in younger (<40 years) and older (> 65 years) people living in the United Kingdom (UK).
It is recommended to respect the perioral zone by fixing the feeding tube only on the newborn's cheek, in order to promote oral acquisition and avoid repeated dislodgment of probes (HAS). This rule is easily applicable for nasogastric tubes. The difficulty is found for orogastric tubes. The "mustache" is usually used to fix it, but this interferes with the perioral zone and must be changed more often than necessary. To achieve a more sustainable orogastric tube's fixation to the cheek, a German team directed by W. Krämer developed and tested an orogastric tube's fixing technique that was subsequently approved and used. Using this German method, a randomized, monocentric superiority study, including 30 newborns and premature babies requiring an orogastric tube, will compared german probe's fixation method to the mustache. The aim of the study is to ensure a more effective orogastric tube's fixation to reduce the number of fixation changes, probe placements and negative oral stimulations in newborns.
To determine the half time of the emptying of the stomach of women in early labor with and without epidural pain relief when drinking either water or a carbohydrate-based sports drink.
The aim of the study is to use sequential ultrasound evaluation of the gastric volume to determine how long it takes for the stomach of a fasting pregnant woman at term, admitted for elective cesarean section, to empty after ingesting a 400ml carbohydrate drink (Nutricia preOp).
Adequate preoperative fasting is critical in preventing pulmonary aspiration of gastric content. Ultrasonography is considering as a useful test assessing the volume of gastric contents, but the emptying time of a rice-based meal (Asian foods) in healthy populations was not clear. The objective of this study was to investigate the minimum fasting time required for adequate gastric emptying after the ingestion of a rice-based meal.
The research continuously enrolled 100 patients undergone MCCG between May to December 2017 as the intervention group with magnetic steering of capsule in the pylorus and duodenum, and randomly selected 100 patients before May 2017 from the database as the control group with passive movement of the capsule. The difference of the pyloric transit time (PTT) and duodenal papilla detection rate (DPDR) between the two groups were compared, and related factors were also investigated.
Ultrasound imaging will be used to evaluate time for gastric emptying in healthy, fasting newborns, and infants following feeding of clear liquids and/or milk (including breast or formula).
