About this study

Official title: Normal Values for Esophageal High Resolution Manometry in an Advanced Protocol Using a Test Meal

Normal values for measurements of high resolution manometry in a protocol which includes isolated liquid swallows in upright and recumbent position, free drinking of water, a solid test meal and a postprandial observational period will be determined.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will recruit healthy volunteers and ask for study participation. After providing informed consent, participants will be questioned using standardized questionnaires assessing symptoms of reflux, dysphagia, gastrointestinal symptom burden and depression. Participants will be tested using our advanced protocol for high resolution esophageal manometry. This protocol includes individual liquid swallows, free drinking of water, a standardized test meal (200g rice) and a postprandial observational period. Normal values for liquid and solid swallows will be determined.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Values for HRM data (IRP, DCI, DL) in healthy volunteers

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. discomfort on a VAS from 1-10 for each type of measurement

    Discomfort during different steps of the investigation

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Rice meal in people with Healthy, run by University of Zurich at 1 site in Switzerland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Switzerland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Values for HRM data (IRP, DCI, DL) in healthy volunteers (time frame: 1 hour). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02407938, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Dec 2015.
