Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effect of Octreotide on the Colonic Motility in Pediatric Patients (NCT NCT01917773)

NCT ID: NCT01917773

Last Updated: 2015-12-21

Results Overview

Colonic motility was measured using a solid-state catheter. The catheter had 36 sensors spaced 5-cm apart for the first 15 sensors and 1-cm apart for the remaining sensors. Pressures were transmitted to a transducer and recorded on a personal computer system (Medical Measurement Systems USA, Dover, NH). Motility index (MI) was calculated using the Medical Measurement Systems computer program. The MI represents the area under the curve of the pressure tracing for a certain period (21). The MI was calculated for each channel. The MIs from all of the channels were then averaged to give each patient 1 average MI for the particular period under study. In this study, MI was calculated for the periods of 15, 30, and 45 minutes before and after infusion of octreotide. MI is reported as millimeters of mercury (mmHg) per 15, 30, or 45 minutes.

Participant Flow

All eligible patients referred for colonic manometry to the GI Motility Laboratory at Riley Hospital between Sep 2013 and June 2014. 24 patients were assessed for eligibility to participate in the study in the hospital. 8 patients were excluded, as they did not meet inclusion criteria. 3 participant refused enrollment.

Measure
Octreotide
n=13 Participants
1. Fasting motility was recorded for at least 60 minutes. 2. Octreotide 1mcg/kg, maximum of 50mcg was administered subcutaneously (one hour after application of EMLA topical cream). Motility was then recorded for 45-60 minutes. 3. Patients were then offered a high-fat, high-energy meal as described elsewhere, and motility was recorded for 60 minutes. 4. Patients then received 1 to 2 doses of bisacodyl (0.2 mg/kg, maximum of 10 mg) through the motility catheter, and motility was recorded.
