Evaluation of Diagnostic Methods and Dietary Treatment of Diabetic Gastroparesis

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Diabetic Gastroparesis
Interventions
Radiation: Validate X-ray diagnostic method.
Other: Can the motility be improved
Biological: postprandial plasma glucose
Registration Number
NCT01557296
Lead Sponsor
Göteborg University
Brief Summary

The objective of the study is in subjects with Insulin Treated Diabetes Mellitus type 1 or 2 and gastroparesis:

* validate radiopaque markers with fluoroscopy with gastric scintigraphy method

* study the difference of metabolic control including the frequents of hypoglycaemia, gastrointestinal symptoms, quality of life and nutrition state during dietary treatment of food of small particle size compared with food of large particle size

* validate the radiopaque markers method and measurement of the blood glucose and gastrointestinal symptoms after a test meal, against the gastric scintigraphy

* determine if the function of gastric emptying can be improved after intervention
