Dexmedetomidine inhibits gastric emptying and oro-caecal transit in healthy volunteers.
BACKGROUND Dexmedetomidine is a potent and selective α2-adrenoceptor agonist used for perioperative and intensive care sedation with certain beneficial qualities. However, based on preclinical observations, it might inhibit gastric emptying and gastrointestinal transit, which could result in unwanted effects in intensive care patients. This study evaluated the effects of dexmedetomidine on gast...
متن کاملOro-cecal transit time: influence of a subsequent meal.
BACKGROUND Small intestinal and oro-cecal transit time (OCTT) is determined for clinical diagnostics and research purposes. Experimental protocols used vary with respect to the inclusion of a subsequent meal during the test period. This study was conducted to elucidate whether the ingestion of a subsequent meal during the test period influences the OCTT of the test meal. MATERIALS AND METHODS...
متن کاملInfluence of a subsequent meal on the oro-cecal transit time of a solid test meal.
BACKGROUND Oro-cecal transit time (OCTT) is determined for clinical diagnostics of intestinal complaints and research purposes. Ingestion of a subsequent meal during the test period shortens the OCTT of a liquid test meal (glucose solution), as previously reported. This study was conducted to determine whether the same phenomenon occurs after ingestion of a solid test meal. MATERIALS AND METH...

Transit-time flow technology is considered as a quality of care in bypass surgery especially in off pump revascularization. Transit time flow measurement is a real time, direct, easy and handy tool for assessment quality of anastomosis and graft blood flow.
متن کاملEffect of codeine and loperamide on upper intestinal transit and absorption in normal subjects and patients with postvagotomy diarrhoea.
Patients with chronic severe diarrhoea after truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty are often difficult to treat using conventional antidiarrhoeal drugs and remain severely disabled. We examined the effect of two drugs, codeine phosphate and loperamide, on upper intestinal transit and carbohydrate absorption, measured non-invasively by serial exhaled breath hydrogen monitoring, in patients with post...
