Trial Outcomes & Findings for Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Pancreatitis (NCT NCT02318134)

NCT ID: NCT02318134

Last Updated: 2021-04-14

Results Overview

The recovery of gastrointestinal dysfunction was assessed by gastrointectinal failure score. Gastrointestinal failure score is a comprehensive score for assessing gastrointestinal function. Gastrointestinal dysfunction score gets o point meaning enteral nutrition\> 50% of the required amount and no intra-abdominal hypertension. GIF score range from 0 to 4, and higher scores mean a worse outcome.
