Efficacy Study of a Low Volume of Water Intake and Mosapride for Endoscopy in Patients With Subtotal Gastrectomy

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Foreign Body Left During Endoscopic Examination
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01284764
Lead Sponsor
Inje University
Brief Summary

A low volume of water intake and mosapride will effectively reduce food residue in remnant stomach for patients who had undergone subtotal gastrectomy due to gastric cancer.

Detailed Description

We evaluate that a 500mL of water intake and mosapride will effectively reduce food residue in remnant stomach for patients who had undergone subtotal gastrectomy due to gastric cancer. We plan to compare this method with routine midnight fasting method for endoscopy in patients with subtotal gastrectomy.
