About this study

Official title: Pre and Post-gastrostomy Evaluation of Gastroesophageal Reflux in Children Using 24-hour pH Monitoring

The aim of this study was to evaluate 24-hour pH monitoring results before and after gastrostomy in neurological impaired (NI) children who underwent gastrostomy or Nissen fundoplication (NF) concurrently with gastrostomy.

Read the detailed description

Gastrointestinal (GI) problems causing malnutrition may develop quite frequently in patients with neuromotor developmental delay. Diagnosis of GERD in patients with neurological impairment (NI) might be more difficult due to the absence of characteristic features in many cases. One of the best methods for the diagnosis of GER is the 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring.Even though there are some statements in the literature advocating that gastroesophageal reflux may develop in the late period in patients undergoing only gastrostomy, there are also reports supporting that gastrostomy does not contribute to the development of reflux.Regardless of whether the patient received anti-reflux surgery or not, the long-term follow-up is necessary in patients feeding with gastrostomy.The aim of this study is to compare the results of pre- and postoperative 24-hour pH monitoring in patients who underwent gastrostomy only and who underwent fundoplication concurrently with gastrostomy and to evaluate influence of gastrostomy/ LNF+ gastrostomy on GER.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
24-hour esophageal pH monitoringExperimental24-hour esophageal pH monitoring was conducted using an ambulatory system (Ohmega, MMS, Enschede, The Netherlands). This system consists of a portable data logger (MMS Investigation and Diagnostic Software®) and a disposable catheter which contains two pH electrodes (Unisensor, Attikon, Switzerland). Before recording, the pH electrode was calibrated in the special buffer solutions at pH values of 1 and 2.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pre and post-gastrostomy evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux in children using 24-hour pH monitoring

    NI patients who had previously received pre and post-gastrostomy (Group 1) or gastrostomy+NF (Group 2) were underwent pH monitoring pre-post operatively.

    Measured: 2 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring using an ambulatory system (Ohmega, MMS, Enschede, The Netherlands). in people with Gastroesophageal Reflux, run by Fatma Demirbaş at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 0 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 1 Jul 2020. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Pre and post-gastrostomy evaluation of gastroesophageal reflux in children using 24-hour pH monitoring (time frame: 2 month). 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 1 Jul 2020.
