About this study

Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) is the most common condition for surgical treatment in infant. Traditionally, laparoscopic or open pyloromyotomy are the standard treatments. However, because of severe dehydration, electrolyte disturbance, and malnutrition, these patients have lower tolerance about surgery and recover more slowly than usual. We are going to study the per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP), also named as gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM), which showed promising results for adult gastroparesis, for a novel application of treating IHPS.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • G-POEMProcedure or surgery

    Per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP), also named as gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM), for treating infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) has the following steps: mucosal incision, creation of submucosal tunnel, full-thickness pyloromyotomy, closure of the mucosal entry.

Study groups in NCT04148040
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
G-POEM for infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosisExperimentalThe procedure includes four steps: a) a transversal mucosal incision was performed at the proximal antrum. b) a submucosal longitudinal tunnel was created across the pyloric ring. c) full-thickness pyloromyotomy was performed, with a little extension of the antrum. After pyloromyotomy, an ultrathin gastroscope was used to inspect the mucosa and pyloric outlet. d) after careful hemostasis, the mucosal entry was closed by clips.
Receives: Procedure: G-POEM

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. episodes of postoperative vomiting

    Primary outcomes included episodes of postoperative vomiting in times.

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  2. major complication

    Primary outcomes included major complication in times (based on lexicon and Clavien-Dindo classification, eg, vital-sign instability, ICU stay, hospital readmission, conversion to laparoscopic or open pyloromyotomy, invasive postoperative procedure, haemorrhage, blood transfusion, or prolonged hospitalization due to functional impairment).

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. operating and anaesthetic time

    Secondary outcomes included operating and anaesthetic time in minutes.

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  2. myotomy length

    Secondary outcomes included myotomy length in centimeters

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  3. other complications

    Secondary outcomes included other complications (yes or no) (eg, mucosal injury, delayed mucosal barrier failure, incomplete pyloromyotomy, and respiratory complications without invasive intervention).

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  4. postoperative pain assessment by "Pain assessment for children under four years"

    Secondary outcomes included postoperative pain assessment in score.

    This measurement chart is "Pain assessment for children under four years" which of pain scoring in the postoperative set up is:

    Cry (yes or no), Posture (relaxed or tense), Expression (relaxed, happy or distressed), Response when spoken to (yes or no).

    (Gupta A, Kaur K, Sharma S, Goyal S, Arora S, Murthy RS. Clinical aspects of acute post-operative pain management \& its assessment. J Adv Pharm Technol Res. 2010;1(2):97-108.)

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  5. analgesia requirements

    Secondary outcomes included analgesia requirements (yes or no).

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  6. time to full enteral feed

    Secondary outcomes included time to full enteral feed in hours.

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  7. postoperative length of stay

    Secondary outcomes included postoperative length of stay in days.

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

  8. need for re-operation

    Secondary outcomes included need for re-operation (yes or no).

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing G-POEM in people with Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis and Pyloromyotomy, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Quanlin Li (64041990, li.quanlin@zs-hospital.sh.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

episodes of postoperative vomiting (time frame: 6 months after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Nov 2019.
