About this study

Official title: Therapeutic Oxygen for Gastrointestinal Atony (TOGA): Pilot Trial - Management of Acute Colonic Pseudo-Obstruction With Oxygen Supplementation

This study is a non invasive study to see if 100% oxygen therapy will help to resolve an intestinal obstruction.

Read the detailed description

TOGA involves the provision of a 6- hour treatment with 100% oxygen via non breather mask to hospitalized patients with ileus, small bowel obstruction and/or colonic pseudo-obstruction will be a useful supplemental therapy, decreasing the diameter of the intestinal lumen and enhancing resolution of ileus/pseudo-obstruction

Being tested
100% Oxygen
Keywords
bowel ischemia, bowel perforation
Medical subject headings
Ileus, Colonic Pseudo-Obstruction, Intestinal Perforation

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 100% OxygenDrug

    To provide hospitalized ileus or pseudo-obstruction patient with 100% oxygen via non-rebreather face mask, for 6 hours

Study groups in NCT03386136
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Hospitalized Ileus or Pseudo-Obstruction PatientExperimentalHospitalized inpatient diagnosed with ileus, bowel obstruction or colonic pseudo-obstruction [clinician interpretation or small bowel diameter ≥3.5 cm, cecal diameter ≥ 9 cm, sigmoid colon diameter ≥ 6 cm] provided with 100% oxygen via non-rebreather face mask, for 6 hours
Receives: Drug: 100% Oxygen

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in Diameter of Colon

    X-ray of kidney, ureter and bladder (KUB) to determine maximal cecal diameter, maximal mid-transverse colon diameter, maximal mid-sigmoid colon diameter.

    Measured: 6 - 24 hours

  2. Changes in Diameter of the Small Bowel

    X-ray of kidney, ureter and bladder (KUB) to determine maximal cecal diameter, maximal mid-transverse colon diameter, maximal mid-sigmoid colon diameter.

    Measured: 6 - 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Demonstrates No Resolution of Ileus

    A second treatment with TOGA will be offered.

    Measured: 24 - 30 hours after initial TOGA

  2. Worsening of Ileus

    Worsening of ileus after initial treatment but not requiring surgical or endoscopic intervention, will be offered a second treatment of TOGA.

    Measured: 24 - 30 hours after initial TOGA

  3. Need for endoscopic or surgical intervention

    Worsening of ileus after initial treatment, requiring surgical or endoscopic intervention

    Measured: 24 - 30 hours after initial TOGA

  4. Length of Hospital Stay

    Length of stay, measured at the end of hospitalization

    Measured: up to 100 weeks

  5. Patient Complaints

    Recording of patient perception/tolerance [daily] of TOGA.

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  6. Patient Pain Measurement

    Patient pain measurement determined subjectively through a visual analogue scale (VAS) scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable) taken before and after TOGA treatment.

    Measured: Up to 48 hours

  7. Medication Measurement

    Documenting medication requirements for patients exposed to TOGA.(past 24 hours on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable)

    Measured: 24 hours before through 24 hours after TOGA

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 100% Oxygen in people with Ileus and Ogilvie Syndrome, run by University of Florida 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 10 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 12 Dec 2019. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Changes in Diameter of Colon (time frame: 6 - 24 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03386136, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Dec 2019.
