Official title: The Use of Gastrografin in Chronic Radiation Enteropathy With Small Bowel Obstruction:A Retrospective Study
Chronic radiation enteropathy (CRE) is a major issue for long-term cancer survivors. The aim of this study was to clarify the diagnostic and therapeutic effect of the Gastrografin (GG) challenge for patients with CRE induced small bowel obstruction SBO.
- Conditions
- CRE-induced SBO
- Being tested
- Gastrografin
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
GastrografinDrug
Patients with CRE-induced SBO or ASBO both received GG challenge.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| CRE-induced SBO | Experimental | Patients with CRE-induced SBO received GG challenge. Receives: Drug: Gastrografin |
| ASBO | Active comparator | Patients with adhesive SBO (ASBO) received GG challenge. Receives: Drug: Gastrografin |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The rate of successful conservative treatment
The rate of patients who need for operative intervention within 48 hours of randomization.
Measured: 5 days
Secondary outcomes (2)
The time to resolution
The time to resolution of ASIO (flatus and bowel motion).
Measured: 2 weeks
The length of hospital stays
The length of hospital stays (in hours, calculated from the hospital admission to resolution of intestinal obstruction).
Measured: 2 weeks
