Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study parameter is the gastric emptying time of CHO+PRO beverages in<br /><br>patients with a delayed gastric emptying, calculated as the T1/2, Tlag and GEC<br /><br>(gastric emptying coefficient) of the recovery of 13C from breath samples<br /><br>measured continuously for 3 hours after ingestion.<br /><br>T1/2 indicates the time by which half of the total cumulative recovery of the<br /><br>13C label is attained, and Tlag designates the time at which the 13CO2<br /><br>excretion rate reaches its maximal level; while GEC does not have a clear<br /><br>definition, it is only generally used as an overall index of gastric emptying</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures

<p>Subjective compliance and preference parameters are measured by a<br /><br>questionnaires. Bloodglucose will be monitored by executing a finger-stick<br /><br>glucose test every hour in patients that are diabetic. </p><br>
