Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of EVICEL® Fibrin Sealant (Human) for use as an adjunct to gastrointestinal (GI) surgery.
The goal of this study is to determine whether amoxicillin (AMX) alone has an appreciable effect on upper gastrointestinal motility compared to placebo. In particular, induction of phase III of the interdigestive migrating motor complex (MMC) by AMX will be the primary outcome of the study. MMCs are periodic waves of electrical activity resulting in muscular contractions that pass through the walls of the stomach and intestinal tract during the fasting state. It is characterized by an initial period where there is a minimal electrical activity and muscular contraction (phase I), followed by a gradual increase in the frequency of contractions (phase III) that often leads to a characteristic cluster of contractions (phase III). This cycle occurs only in the fasting state in normal individuals and the frequency of phase III is quite varied, dependent on age and the presence of any underlying abnormalities in gastrointestinal motility. Secondary outcomes will include characteristics of the MMC, patient demographics in responders and non-responders, and the safety profile of AMX at the intervention dose.
Background: Functional abdominal pain disorders (FAPD) are common in school-aged children; however, there is no reliable treatment. Aim: To determine the efficacy and safety of glucomannan for treating FAPD in children. Trial Setting: Department of Pediatrics, The Medical University of Warsaw. Intervention: Patients will be enrolled in a double-blind, randomized controlled trial in which they will receive either glucomannan (10g) or placebo for 4 weeks.
Upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is widely used in the clinical practice. An empty stomach is required to ensure quality and safety. For this reason, endoscopy is conventionally performed after 8 or more hours of fasting, which is potentially related to discomfort to the patients. In recent studies, surgical cholecystectomy has been described to be safe after two hours of fasting on liquids. The aim of this study is to assess safety, quality and comfort of upper GI endoscopy after two hours of fasting.
Study objectives - To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of escalating single oral doses of CJ-12406 in healthy male subjects. - To evaluate the pharmacodynamics of CJ-12406 after multiple oral administrations to healthy male subjects. - To evaluate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetic of a single oral dose of CJ-12406 in healthy male subjects.
This is a Phase 3: Efficacy Study for AMARGOL® a phytomedicine used for asymptomatic digestive complaints.
Unsedated or slightly sedated colonoscopy has fast recovery time, less cost and lower or no incidence of drug-related side effects. May be slightly painful or discomforting for the patient. Based on numerous recent reports, the investigators designed this randomized controlled trial hypothesizing that the use of warm water irrigation versus air insufflation during the insertion phase of colonoscopy might increase the global tolerability of the examination and the proportion of patients undergoing complete colonoscopy without sedation or with a low dose of sedatives.
This study aims at collecting the information related to the safety and effectiveness in the pancreatic exocrine insufficiency patients receiving the treatment with LipaCreon for a long term in order to evaluate the effective and safe use of LipaCreon.
This study aims at collecting the information related to the safety and effectiveness in the pancreatic exocrine insufficiency patients due to cystic fibrosis receiving the treatment with LipaCreon in order to evaluate the effective and safe use of LipaCreon.
An open-label, single centre, randomised, cross-over study to examine the effect of ulimorelin on the pharmacokinetics of midazolam after repeat dose administration of ulimorelin in healthy volunteers.
