Refractory gastroparesis is a disease characterized by a delayed gastric emptying without a mechanical obstruction. Actual treatments have a limited efficacy and gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) is a new treatment that has demonstrated initial promising results in these patients. The investigators aims are to evaluate security and efficacy of this endoscopic treatment in participants with refractory gastroparesis.
This is a study to determine the safety and tolerability of a new medicine (RQ10) for gastrointestinal symptoms in Parkinson's disease. The investigators will also begin to look at the effect of this medicine on gastrointestinal problems. The results will determine if future studies are appropriate. In this study, RQ10 will be compared to a placebo (a look-alike inactive substance). Participation will include multiple office visits. Approximately 48 people will participate.
Gastroparesis is a common chronic condition, disabling the limited therapeutic resources justifying the exploration of new therapeutic possibilities. By analogy to the technique of Per Oral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM), we believe that myotomy pyloric muscle (POP = Per Oral Pyloromyotomy) endoscopically could become a treatment of choice in the refractory gastroparesis with drug treatments by attacking the pyloric obstacle often spastic that counteracts an effective gastric emptying.
The gastric emptying of 400 ml 12.6% carbohydrate rich drink is investigated in elderly women, age 75-100, with acute hip fracture. The emptying time will be assessed by the paracetamol absorption technique, and lag phase and gastric half-emptying time compared with two gender-matched reference groups: elective hip replacement patients, age 45-71, and healthy volunteers, age 28-55.
The Vibrant capsule is a novel vibrating device for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. The effect of different vibrations on the motor functions of the gastrointestinal tract are unclear. The study will focus on the stomach in healthy volunteers. The study will compare the effects of Vibrant capsule treatment and Sham capsule treatment on gastric emptying and gastric motility in healthy volunteers.
This study is performed to assess the efficacy and outcomes of Gastric Per Oral Endoscopic Myotomy "G-POEM" in patients presenting with gastroparesis.
Due to the lack of other drugs to treat gastroparesis Janssen and FDA approved the compassionate use of cisapride to treat patients who had no other effective therapy. For this observational study, 3 patients who had already been prescribed cisapride by outside physicians, were followed to determine the effectiveness of cisapride on their gastric emtpying.
The study investigates the effect of liquid food on the intake of energy and protein compared to solid food. One group will receive dietary counselling in fulfilling their need for energy and protein from liquid food and the other group from solid food.
