Who can join
Adults 2 Weeks to 10 Weeks, any sex, with Postoperative Feeding Following Pyloromyotomy. Healthy volunteers can join.
What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Time to goal feeds
Time frame: 24-48 hours
We are measuring the time it takes for the child to reach goal feeds following surgery. (100ml/kg/day in incremental group, or 12.5ml/kg/feed in ad lib group)
Sponsor's own description
There are several choices to consider when determining the timing of initiation of enteral feeds following a pyloromyotomy. Some practice patterns have initiated feedings as soon as the infant awakens from anesthesia. Some authors have suggested a period of withholding feedings for several hours postoperatively, while others have recommended a significantly longer period of starvation (18 hours) before initiating feedings. The ongoing debate arises over whether a physician chooses a standardized, incremental feeding regimen versus an ad libitum feeding schedule which allows the infant to decide when and how much to eat. Neither has been studied effectively in a randomized controlled setting. A recent review of the literature would suggest that a period of 4 hours of NPO, followed by ad lib feedings may be the best postoperative regimen. This however, has not been studied in a randomized, controlled trial.
