NCT ID: NCT01838304 Completed - Clinical trials for Gastrointestinal Disease

Probability Ramp Control of Propofol for EGD

Start date: March 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Endoscopic sedation requires titration of propofol to deep sedation without minimum overshoot into general anesthesia. This skill is demanding and acquired slowly. Probability Ramp Control (PRC) simplifies this by providing the clinician with a simple infusion sequence that permits gradual titration of propofol. The purpose of this study is to compare the performance of this technology to that of experienced anesthesia providers in endoscopic sedation.

NCT ID: NCT01360502 Completed - Anemia Clinical Trials

Safety of Capsule Endoscopy in Patients With Implantable Cardiac Devices

Start date: December 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This is a prospective study designed to assess safety and potential influence of the MiroCam on cardiac pacemaker and implantable cardiac defibrillator.

NCT ID: NCT01143922 Recruiting - Ultrasonography Clinical Trials

Role of Intraoperative Ultrasound in Gastrointestinal (GI) Malignancies

Start date: August 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Currently available investigating modalities like CT scans, MRI etc although have a high accuracy in staging of gastrointestinal(GI) tract malignancies, are not correct in all cases . The aim of this study is to assess the role of intraoperative ultrasound as a modality to increase the staging accuracy of GI tract malignancies

NCT ID: NCT00910104 Completed - Clinical trials for Short Bowel Syndrome

Cholestasis Reversal: Efficacy of IV Fish Oil

Reversal
Start date: September 2004
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Omegaven is effective in the treatment of parenteral nutrition associated liver disease (PNALD).

NCT ID: NCT00888849 Completed - Clinical trials for Gastrointestinal Disease

An Open-label, Randomized, Prospective Study of the Effectiveness, Safety, and Clinical Outcomes of Stapled Anastomoses Versus Hand-Sutured Anastomoses in Patients Undergoing Gastrointestinal End to End or Side to Side Anastomoses

Tiger
Start date: April 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is being conducted to compare surgical and patient outcomes across stapled (Group II) versus hand-sutured (Group I) groups.

NCT ID: NCT00867477 Completed - Lung Cancer Clinical Trials

PMRR-NO: Pulmonary Metabolic Radiation Response Versus Exhaled Nitric Oxide

Start date: March 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical research study is to use a new breathing test that measures the amount of nitric oxide (NO) you exhale. Researchers want to compare your "NO" levels to the amount of inflammation in your lungs, as measured using a positron emission tomography (PET) scan reading, and with respiratory symptoms questionnaire.

NCT ID: NCT00833625 Completed - Esophageal Cancer Clinical Trials

FDG-PET-CT and Biomarkers in Esophageal Cancer

Start date: February 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the results of a positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan done 10-14 days after beginning chemotherapy and radiation (chemoradiation) can predict how a patient with cancer of the esophagus will respond to chemoradiation. Researchers also want to learn if biomarkers (substances in the body associated with cancer) found in tumor tissue can predict response to chemoradiation.

NCT ID: NCT00671177 Completed - Colonoscopy Clinical Trials

Clinical Evaluation of Water Immersion Colonoscopy Insertion Technique

Start date: September 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Recent studies indicate that infusing 300 milliliters of water (in lieu of air) into the rectum and left colon through the colonoscope as it is being inserted during a colonoscopy examination can allow easier endoscope advancement. This method may prevent stretching of the colon, and ultimately reduce pain induced during colonoscopy. Improvements in patient comfort and cooperation, may increase the efficiency and success rate of complete colonoscopy. The purpose of the study is to test the efficacy of the water immersion technique in patients colonoscopy.

NCT ID: NCT00251992 Completed - Dyspepsia Clinical Trials

Nexium Dyspepsia/AST

Start date: December 2002
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The aim is to evaluate if the resolution of upper abdominal symptoms (pain or burning) during an acid suppressive test trial of esomprazole given daily for 7 days predicts symptoms resolution at the end of a subsequent treatment period of 7 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT00251914 Completed - Dyspepsia Clinical Trials

Nexium Dyspepsia/AST

Start date: December 2002
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The aim is to evaluate if the resolution of upper abdominal symptoms (pain or burning) during an acid suppressive test trial of esomprazole given daily for 7 days predicts symptoms resolution at the end of a subsequent treatment period of 7 weeks.
