See if Continuous Glucose Monitoring can help diagnose dumping syndrome after esophagectomy

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study will assess the usefulness of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to diagnose dumping syndrome in adults who have undergone esophagectomy with gastric tube reconstruction. Participants will be adults 18 years or older with a Sigstad score of 7 or higher who had surgery for esophageal cancer. CGM data will be analyzed to identify glucose patterns associated with dumping symptoms and late dumping. The study aims to determine if CGM can provide a practical tool for early detection in this patient group. No interventional treatment is described in the protocol.
