Clinical Trial Summary

A total of 100 patients aged 18-60 years with confirmed diagnosis of achalasia cardia will be recruited prospectively. In this study, patients diagnosed with achalasia cardia (prior to per oral endoscopic myotomy treatment) will undergo comprehensive evaluation of their nutritional status. All the participants will be asked about the details enlisted in pre-tested proforma.The evaluation will include demographic data(age, gender, food preferences, socio economic status,underlying diseases such as hypertension diabetes mellitus etc) anthropometric assessment (height, weight, Body Mass Index, weight loss and duration, percentage weight loss, midupperarm circumference , triceps skin fold, hand grip strength) and biochemical assessment (Hemoglobin, serum albumin and serum pre-albumin,total protein, serum Vitamin D, calcium, B12, serum iron). Each patients' dietary habits will be assessed by SUBJECTIVE GLOBAL ASSESMENT questionnaire (weight change, dietary intake, gastrointestinal symptoms, functional capacity, oedema, subcutaneous fat,muscle wasting, ascites.The obtained data will be statistically analyzed and interpreted. As we are in the midst of COVID-19 pandemic, we will be taking utmost safety precautions to prevent cross-infection. The doctor performing the study and the accompanying technician will be donning the personal protection equipment all throughout the study.

Intervention

Procedure:
Per oral endoscopy myotomy
The per-oral endoscopic myotomy, or POEM, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure for the treatment of achalasia wherein the inner circular muscle layer of the lower esophageal sphincter is divided through a submucosal tunnel.[1] This enables food and liquids to pass into the stomach, a process that is impaired in achalasia. The tunnel is created, and the myotomy performed, using a flexible endoscope, meaning the entire procedure can be done without external incisions.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary To assess the various nutritional indices in cases with treatment ( per oral endoscopic myotomy) failure cases with idiopathic achalasia To assess the detailed biochemical assessment i.e., change in the levels of hemoglobin, serum albumin, total protein, vitamin D, calcium, vitamin B12 before and after the per oral endoscopic myotomy procedure. 12 months
Secondary To evaluate the severity of malnutrition before and after undergoing Per-oral endoscopic myotomy (Per Oral Endoscopic Myotomy).
