Gastric Slow Wave and Autonomic Nervous Function in Cirrhotic Patients With Esophageal Varices After Ligation-A Clinical Research

October 11, 2019 updated by: The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University

Gastric Slow Wave and Autonomic Nervous Function in Cirrhotic Patients With

This study is intended to include 20 patients with esophageal varices caused by liver cirrhosis who were admitted to the first affiliated hospital of nanjing medical university from May 2019, and randomly select 8 patients with gastric polyps as the control group.General clinical data, imaging data, endoscopic data and laboratory indicators were collected.Electrogastrogram (EGG) and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) were performed before and 24 hours after operation in patients with cirrhotic esophageal varices, and the dyspepsia scale was filled out.Electrogastrogram (EGG) and cardiac variability (HRV) were performed in patients with gastric polyps 24 hours before and after surgery, and the dyspepsia scale was filled.EGG uses the surface electrode to record gastric myoelectric activity, and evaluates the patient's gastric rhythm by normal slow wave ratio, overspeed ratio, overslow ratio, and rhythm disorder ratio.The HRV evaluates the balance state of the patient's autonomic nervous system with High Frequency (HF)/Low Frequency (LF).SPSS software was used for paired sample analysis of experimental results.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

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.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Gastric Slow Wave of patients before the surgery, Change from Baseline Gastric Slow Wave 1 day after the surgery ,Change from Baseline Gastric Slow Wave 5 days after the surgery
Time Frame: before the surgery, 1 day after the surgery, and 5 days after surgery
EGG evaluate patient's gastric electrical rhythm by normal slow wave ratio, overspeed ratio, overslow ratio, and rhythm disorder ratio Evaluating patient's gastric electrical rhythm by normal slow wave ratio, overspeed ratio, overslow ratio, and rhythm disorder ratio Evaluating patient's gastric electrical rhythm by normal slow wave ratio, overspeed ratio, overslow ratio, and rhythm disorder ratio Evaluating patient's gastric electrical rhythm by normal slow wave ratio, overspeed ratio, overslow ratio, and rhythm disorder ratio
before the surgery, 1 day after the surgery, and 5 days after surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
LF/HF of patients before the surgery, Change from Baseline LF/HF 1 day after the surgery ,Change from Baseline LF/HF 5 days after the surgery
Time Frame: before the surgery, 1 day afterthe surgery, and 5 days after surgery
HRV assesses the balance of the patient's autonomic nervous system with high frequency (HF) / low frequency (LF)
before the surgery, 1 day afterthe surgery, and 5 days after surgery

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 23, 2019

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
