Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 13 months to 17 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Study population: The population studied retrospectively will be pediatric patients with developmental delays dependent on enteral nutrition for 90% or more of their nutritional needs and meeting the inclusion/ exclusion criteria.

Who may be able to join

  • 13 months to < 18 years of age on admission to facility
  • Required enteral nutrition to meet 90% or more of their energy needs prior to switch to a Peptide based formula
  • Received enteral nutrition with an intact protein formula for a minimum of two weeks prior to a switch to a Peptide based formula
  • Have documentation of intolerance to an intact protein formula, followed by a switch in formula received to a Peptide based formula
  • Have documentation of an assessment of feeding tolerance following the switch to a Peptide based formula
  • Formulas received must be indicated for use in children or adults (not infant formulas).

Who cannot join

  • Recent abdominal surgery, change in tube position/placement (within past 30 days)
  • Cow's milk protein allergy
  • Any current infections including upper respiratory, viral, gastroenteritis, wound infection.

About this study

Official title: Tube Feeding Tolerance After Switch to Peptide Based Formula in Children With Developmental Delay: A Retrospective Assessment

A retrospective chart review to assess feeding tolerance in children who had been switched from an intact protein formula to a Peptide based formula due to feeding intolerance in a pediatric facility for the developmentally delayed.

Read the detailed description

Medical records of pediatric patients with enteral feeding intolerance on standard polymeric formulas that were switched to a peptide based formula will be retrospectively analyzed. Data will be collected on caloric intake, ability to meet enteral nutrition goals, incidence of intolerance, and the use of medications to control gastrointestinal symptoms.

Medical subject headings
Developmental Disabilities, Feeding and Eating Disorders

What is being measured

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

  1. Feeding tolerance after switching to Peptide based formula

    Categorized as no change, tolerance improved, tolerance worsened.

    Measured: up to 30 days post formula switch

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Intake of target feeding volume

    Documentation of feeding volume after switch as "less than," "about the same as," or "more than" feeding volume achieved before switch.

    Measured: up to 30 days post formula switch

  2. Feeding intolerance parameter(s) identified before switch to Peptide based formula and feeding tolerance parameter(s) improved by switch.

    Intolerance Parameter's: Gagging/retching, vomiting, high residuals, abdominal distention/ gas, stool consistency issues (too hard, too loose).

    Measured: up to 30 days post formula switch

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Developmental Disabilities and Feeding Disorder, run by Société des Produits Nestlé (SPN) at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 3 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 5 Oct 2016. 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 United States. 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?

Feeding tolerance after switching to Peptide based formula (time frame: up to 30 days post formula switch). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 5 Oct 2016.
