Chyme Reinfusion for Type 2 Intestinal Failure

Description

This project aims to introduce and evaluate a novel assistive prosthetic system that helps prevent and treat nutrient and fluid loss from enterocutaneous fistulas. The device system functions simply to return the output from a fistula back into the distal limb of the intestine.

Conditions

Intestinal Failure, Enterocutaneous Fistula, Ileostomy - Stoma, High Output Stoma

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Age ≥ 21 years
  • * Able to provide written informed consent
  • * Dependent on parenteral nutrition (PN)
  • * DES/ECF with exposed afferent and efferent limbs visible on the abdominal wall
  • * Minimum of 2 weeks post DES/ECF creation
  • * Distal limb of DES/ECF opening can be intubated by a minimum 24Fr feeding tube (dilatation of orifice strictures is allowable)
  • * Insufficient distal access channel (distal limb) for device insertion
  • * Bowel obstruction proximal to the DES/ECF
  • * Small bowel obstruction, anastomotic leak, or perforation distal to the DES/ECF (diagnostic procedure such as gastrografin test, fistulograms, or similar must be performed, if there is a distal anastomosis with integrity not previously evaluated, to ensure that the subject is eligible)
  • * Scheduled for DES/ECF reversal within 4 weeks of enrolment date
  • * Current infection with Clostridium difficile colitis
  • * Current infection small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)
  • * Signs or symptoms of systemic infection
  • * Pre-existing gastrointestinal motility disorders including slow transit constipation, outlet obstruction, fecal incontinence, and gastroparesis
  • * Metabolic, neurogenic, or endocrine disorders known to cause colonic dysmotility, e.g., multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, hypothyroidism
  • * Known peritoneal metastatic disease prior to DES/ECF closure (acceptable if only discovered at time of closure)
  • * Liver cirrhosis
  • * Hereditary coagulopathy, e.g., von Willebrand disease
  • * Severe chronic renal insufficiency prior to DES/ECF formation (eGFR\<30mL/min/1.73m2)
  • * Active implantable medical devices such as neuromodulation and cardiac systems
  • * Metal stents implanted within 20cm of expected use of the controller
  • * Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • * Subjects participating in an interventional clinical study within 30 days prior to randomization
