-
Deferring a nasogastric tube in non-operatively managed small bowel obstruction
This trial tests whether not placing a nasogastric tube in patients with small bowel obstruction who are not having immediate surgery can reduce respiratory complications.
-
GT Metabolic Magnet System to create side-to-side connections in the stomach or small intestine
This study will test whether the GT Metabolic Magnet System can safely create side-to-side connections in the stomach or small intestine for adults with gastric outlet obstruction, partial small bowel obstruction, or superior mesenteric artery syndrome.
-
Using Point of Care Ultrasound to Diagnose Small Bowel Obstruction in Emergency Departments
This study tests whether using ultrasound in the emergency department can help doctors quickly and safely diagnose small bowel obstruction instead of relying on CT scans.
-
Comparing early surgery to 3 days of non-surgical management for acute small bowel obstruction
This study is testing whether early surgery or a 3-day wait-and-see approach is better for helping people with a blocked small intestine recover and avoid complications.
-
Evaluating the timing of contrast media administration for small bowel obstruction
This study is testing if giving a special type of liquid sooner or later after a tube is placed in the stomach can help people with a small bowel blockage feel better faster.
-
Procalcitonin-guided care for adhesion-related small bowel obstruction
This study tests whether using blood procalcitonin levels to guide the choice between surgery and conservative care helps adults with adhesion-related small bowel obstruction.
