A Trial of Thickened Feeds to Treat Gastroesophageal Reflux in Children Admitted After Choking Spell

Gastroesophageal Reflux Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized Trial of Thickened Feeds to Treat Gastroesophageal Reflux in Children Admitted to Boston Children's Hospital After Brief Resolved Unexplained Event

Clinical Trial Summary

Infants often present to the hospital with episodes of coughing, choking, gagging, change in muscle tone, and/or change in skin color, known as brief resolved unexplained event. Many studies have tried to address why infants have these symptoms and if there is a way to prevent them from happening again. Currently, there is no clear agreement on the most common cause of these symptoms or how to prevent them. Some studies have suggested that gastroesophageal reflux can cause these symptoms. The investigators are conducting a study of infants who are admitted to Boston Children's Hospital with episodes of coughing, choking, gagging, change in muscle tone, and/or change in skin color, symptoms that could be reflux. The investigators want to determine if these symptoms can be prevented by changing the way infants are fed, either by giving them a formula to treat reflux or by thickening their feeds to treat reflux. The goal of the study is to determine if different types of feeding interventions prevent infants from coming back to the hospital.
