Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to evaluate patients who are intolerant of current enteral formula to be transitioned to peptide-based therapy to assess if tolerance is improved and if they are able to better meet nutritional needs. 

Investigator plans to examine the gastrointestinal (GI) physiologic profile of Teduglutide, a Glucagon-like Peptide 2 Analog as a possible intestinotrophic growth factor capable of inducing small bowel adaptation and regeneration in patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS), with the potential to decrease parenteral nutrition dependence.

The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences of patients with education surrounding home tube feeding.  Specifically, get feedback on ‘hands on’ education simulation tools.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of Peptamen Intense on body weight in tube-fed adults with obesity.

The purpose of this study is to determine the sufficiency of the instructions for use, demonstration video, and labeling relating to the Mobility+ system from users, caregivers, and healthcare professionals. This evaluation will enable Rockfield Medical Devices to assess the usability of Mobility+, ensure user and patient safety are prioritized and adequate information on use, precautions, warnings, and contraindications are provided as appropriate.

The purpose of this study is to look at current practices related to blended food tube feeding among  parents of children who require home tube feedings.

The use of long-term enteral tube feeding has increased dramatically in the United States and worldwide. Radiologically-inserted gastrostomy (RIG) or percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) are the most common techniques used for long term enteral feeding. Gastrostomy-related complications are classified as major (peritonitis, abscess, bleeding requiring intervention/transfusion, bowel perforation, death) or minor (superficial infection, skin erosion, bleeding not requiring intervention, exit site leakage or tube complication [occluded, malpositioned/dislodged, damaged]). Not many studies have compared the outcomes and major and minor complications associated with RIG versus PEG. The primary objectives of this study are to assess pain as well as major and minor complications with gastrostomy-tube ...

The purpose of this study is to find the effectiveness of blenderized tube feedings in adult people started on the Home Enteral Nutrition Program.
