The purpose of this research study is to assess whether using a yoga-based intervention in practice is feasible (possible) and acceptable to patients with Functional Dyspepsia and/or Gastroparesis (FD-GP).
A pilot study to evaluate and compare glucose metrics using a real-time continuous glucose monitor (FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor) between patients with diabetes and gastroparesis and those with diabetes without gastroparesis.
The objective of the Pediatric Gastroparesis Registry 2 is to create a national prospective registry of children, adolescents, and young adults with gastroparesis and gastroparesis-like syndrome (symptoms of gastroparesis but normal gastric emptying).
The Gastroparesis Registry 4 (GpR4) is an observational study of patients with symptoms of gastroparesis (Gp) and functional dyspepsia (FD) with either delayed or normal gastric emptying. To better understand these disorders, this registry will capture demographic, clinical, physiological, questionnaire, and patient outcome data to characterize the patients and their clinical course. Participants will complete several questionnaires, complete a nutrient drink test and have a gastric emptying study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if the study drug CIN-102 (deudomperidone) can help reduce the symptoms associated with diabetic gastroparesis in adult patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To evaluate the efficacy of CIN-102 on symptoms of gastroparesis when given to patients with diabetic gastroparesis compared to a placebo * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of CIN-102 when given to patients with diabetic gastroparesis compared to a placebo Participants will go through the following schedule: * Screening period (1-2 visits) * Lead-in period (1 visit) * Will complete a Gastric Emptying Breath Test (GEBT) * Will complete daily diary and other Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) as described in the protocol to assess eligibility for continued study participation * 12-week treatment period (7 visits) * Study drug taken twice daily by mouth * Will complete daily diaries and other PROs as described in protocol * 1 week follow-up (1 visit) Researchers will compare the effects of the following treatments: * Drug- CIN-102 Dose 15 mg or 10 mg * Drug- Placebo
The goal of this observational study is to utilize a novel high resolution electrogastrography device to gauge if identification of gastric dysarrythmias can reliably identify patients that will respond to or will require definitive pyloric interventions such as a G-POEM procedure in patients with medically refractory gastroparesis Aims: 1. Assess for the presence of gastric dysarrythmias in lung transplantation population as compared to alternative etiologies of gastroparesis 2. Assess if presence or absence of gastric dysarrythmias is predictive of response or need of Gastric -per-oral endoscopic myotomy 3. Assess alterations in gastric dysarrthmias following pyloric interventions including G-POEM. Patients will undergo two surface body surface gastric mapping via the HR-EGG before and after undergoing a gastric per oral endoscopic myotomy as standard clinical care for the treatment of medically refractory gastroparesis
This is a double-blind, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled, comparative phase II dose-finding trial. The trial will be conducted with four treatment groups in the form of a parallel group comparison and will serve to compare oral treatment with daily doses of 10, 20, or 40 mg Naronapride vs. placebo for the treatment of patients with Gastroparesis.
The purpose of this program is to allow the use of domperidone in children from 12 to 21 years of age with symptoms related to motility disorders and Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) who have failed all the standard treatments for their condition.
Gastric Per-Oral Endoscopic Myotomy (G-POEM) is a procedure for the Treatment of Gastroparesis.
This is a prospective sham study to investigate the role of transpyloric stenting with lumen apposing metal stent (LAMS) as a predictor for clinical response to gastric per-oral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (GPOEM) for refractory gastroparesis. The study hypothesizes that clinical improvement with transpyloric stenting in patients with refractory gastroparesis is a predictor of subsequent clinical success of GPOEM.
To investigate the safety and efficacy of tradipitant versus placebo in relieving nausea and other symptoms of gastroparesis.
GOLDEN is a longitudinal database of patients with the symptoms (Sx) of gastroparesis (Gp) who were seen and recorded at the University of Louisville from 2012 and is ongoing. Patients are enrolled and followed by sequential numbers and may include legacy patients seen at other centers by some of the same team and who are reported as part of the series. Outcome relate to patients Sx, survival, quality of life and other measures as detailed below, over time, regardless of whether any treatment was given or not. If treatments were administered GOLDEN allows for examination and stratification of outcome by groups both at baseline and at follow up.
Explore the effects of auricular transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (taVNS) on brain and stomach outcomes in functional dyspepsia and gastroparesis patients.
The device being studied, the Transcutaneous Electrical Accustimulator (TEA), will deliver weak electrical current at two specific points, one at the leg and the other at the arm at settings known to improve symptoms involving the digestive system. The study team would like to test if the device will impact the gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and gastric motility in study participants with gastroparesis.
The global incidence of diabetes is rising. Gastroparesis is a significant complication of diabetes that results in debilitating symptoms and affects quality of life. Current treatment options for diabetic gastroparesis are limited. Significant visceral afferent neuropathy is associated with diabetic gastroparesis and sympathetic overactivity is seen in nausea, both type 1 and 2 diabetes, and diabetic complications. These dysfunctions can result from neuropathy affecting the thoracic spinal nerves that carry both general visceral afferents and preganglionic sympathetic efferents in the greater splanchnic nerve, innervating the foregut. Neuromodulation of the thoracic spinal nerves should improve diabetic gastroparesis symptoms and restore quality of life by improving neuropathy and gastric sensori-motor function. The investigators has developed and refined a novel, noninvasive, neuromodulation treatment, Thoracic Spinal Nerve Magnetic Neuromodulation Therapy (ThorS-MagNT). In an uncontrolled trial of adults with diabetic gastroparesis, ThorS-MagNT the investigators demonstrated feasibility, acceptability, and improvement of DGp symptoms. Whether active neuromodulation is better than sham therapy and the optimal frequency of treatment are not known. The investigators propose to conduct a dose-ranging, sham-controlled trial (pilot NIH Stage 1b) to assess the effect of ThorS-MagNT on symptom severity and quality of life in diabetic gastroparesis (TNM-DGp Trial). The investigators will test the hypothesis that ThorS-MagNT will improve visceral afferent neuropathy, autonomic and gastric dysfunction, compared to sham. The investigators will also test whether any improvements are due to neuromodulation of (a) peripheral spino-gut axis or (b) central structures of the limbic system and autonomic network, or both. Successful completion of this pilot study will provide insights into gastroparesis disease processes and inform mechanisms of action of neuromodulation therapy in addressing disruption of the brain-gut axis. Expected outcomes include development of a novel, non-invasive, safe and efficacious therapy for diabetic gastroparesis. These efforts will inform future true efficacy testing in an NIH Stage 2 trial using multiphase optimization strategy (MOST) design.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate if an enhanced Enterra device programming strategy will improve symptoms associated with gastroparesis, improve symptoms in a faster amount of time, and improve quality of life measures. Participants in this study will be evaluated for study entry criteria, have an Enterra Therapy System implanted, and be randomly assigned to one of two programming strategies. Participants will answer daily questions about their gastroparesis symptoms on an application with their phone/tablet. Participants will answer quality of life questionnaires about their gastroparesis symptoms at monthly study visits. Participants will be involved in the study for up to six months after treatment assignment. Programming parameters in the study are within currently approved labeling.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether or not the investigators can utilize Body Surface Gastric Mapping to determine who would best benefit to receive G-POEM procedure and how Body Surface Gastric Mapping can be utilized with patients who have gastroparesis symptoms. the investigators may also be able to find more ways how Body Surface Gastric Mapping testing can benefit patients with gastroparesis and/or G-POEM procedure.
The purpose of this study is to find out if we can gain access to the vagus nerve which is largely an internal nerve that controls stomach function. We hope to gain access to the internal vagus nerve by electrically stimulating the nerve around the external ear. If we can do this then we hope that this will help our treatment of patients with nausea and vomiting and disordered stomach function
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate if different Enterra® device programming methods active during sleeping hours can maintain gastroparesis-related symptom relief and quality of life measures. Participants in this study with existing Enterra® devices will be randomly assigned to one of three programming methods that will be active during sleep. Participants will answer daily questions about their gastroparesis symptoms on an application with their phone/tablet. Participants will answer quality of life questionnaires about their gastroparesis symptoms at study visits. Participants will be involved in the study for up to six months after treatment assignment. Programming parameters in the study are within currently approved labeling.
A randomized clinical trial comparing endoscopic per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) versus a control sham intervention (diagnostic esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) without pyloric disruption) in patients with medically refractory gastroparesis.
This is a single-center pilot study to be conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital. The purpose of this study is to examine the non-pharmacological impact of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) on gastroparesis symptoms and other clinical co-comorbidities such as pain, depression, anxiety, and catastrophizing. CBT trial patients will undergo careful phenotyping pre- and post- intervention with brain MRI, autonomic function test (AFT), gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES), and nutrient drink test (NDT) to determine the impact of CBT on these metrics in patients with gastroparesis. Characterization of these relationships or lack thereof can help guide future development of more targeted approaches and optimize treatment strategies for gastroparesis.
Gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction affects up to 50% of medical and surgical critically ill children. GI dysfunction, specifically gastric dysmotility and loss of epithelial barrier integrity, is associated with significant morbidity in critical illness. The mechanisms underlying GI dysfunction in critical illness are not well understood. GI dysfunction in surgery and critical illness has been associated with inflammation. There is evidence to suggest the protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) is a link between inflammation and GI dysfunction. PAR2 is a G-coupled receptor present throughout the GI tract. PAR2 mediates GI motility and epithelial barrier integrity. PAR2 is activated by PAR2 agonists, specifically GI serine proteases and zonulin, released under conditions of inflammation. In this study the investigators will examine the relationship between inflammation and PAR2 activation by PAR2 agonists and subsequent GI dysfunction in pediatric critically ill surgical patients. The overall hypothesis of this study is that PAR2 activation by PAR2 agonists, GI serine proteases and zonulin, released due to inflammation results in gastric dysmotility and loss of epithelial barrier integrity. In this study, the investigators will examine whether PAR2 agonist expression is increased and correlates with GI dysfunction in critically ill surgical pediatric patients. This proposal fills a knowledge gap in the understanding of mechanisms for GI dysfunction in critical illness, and will be applicable to all surgical and medical critically ill children.
In this research study, biopsy samples will be collected to provide more insight into the underlying cause of the motility disorders, help direct further investigation into the cause of the underlying condition, provide future prognosis and predict response to gastric electrical stimulation (GES).
The goal of this pilot study is to assess the acceptability of the transcutaneous electrical acustimulation (TEA) device in treating Scleroderma-related gastroparesis. The main objective is: To evaluate the acceptability of TEA as an intervention for alleviating symptoms of distension and bloating in individuals diagnosed with Scleroderma. Participants will be provided with the TEA devices that will be applied to the skin for a total of 45 minutes twice daily after meals. Participants will be asked to fill out both daily diaries and biweekly questionnaires to assess for improvement in the gastroparesis symptoms.
To assess whether holding incretin-based therapy before endoscopy reduces the likelihood of clinically relevant Residual Gastric Volume (RGV). Primary Outcomes: * Residual gastric volume that precludes adequate endoscopic examination * Residual gastric volume that necessitates premature termination of the endoscopy procedure * Need for endotracheal intubation due to stomach contents. * Occurrence of aspiration events requiring extended observation/monitoring, unplanned therapeutics, and/or hospital admission Secondary Outcomes: * Presence of any solid food * Presence of moderate liquid content * Increased RGV(Residual Gastric Volume) defined as any amount of solid content or \> 0.8 mL/Kg of fluid content (measured from the aspiration/suction canister). * Differences in primary and secondary outcomes between different medications
This is prospective data recording study. All patients will receive standard medical care and no experimental interventions will be performed.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about gastric myoelectric activity in children with GI symptoms. The main question it aims to answer is which patterns or signals are associated with GI symptoms as measured by a body surface gastric mapping (BSGM) device. Participants will have their stomach activity recorded for up to 4 hours using the BSGM device and log real-time symptoms. Researchers will compare the recordings of healthy children and children with GI symptoms to define abnormal GI patterns.
Purpose: The study is a cross-sectional observational study designed to determine if eosinophilic gastritis (EG) results in gastric motility impairment. Hypothesis: Gastric dysfunction occurs in the natural history of EG but is underdiagnosed due, in part, to contraindications to the use of the standard meals used in gastric emptying studies.
This study will assess changes in glycemic control in 40 patients with diabetes who undergo per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) for medically refractory gastroparesis.
