简要总结
It is hypothesized that using methylnaltrexone in addition to pain killer narcotics (opiates) in patients will result in increased tube feeding rates with more frequent nutrition at goal calorie rate.
详细描述
Tube feeding rates and tube feeding residual volumes will be measured and followed blinded to the treatment arm (methylnaltrexone vs. placebo) to evaluate if patients (who prior to study entry did not tolerate goal rates tube feeds) can get closer to tube feeding goal with the treatment arm.

On day 1 Hydrogen Breath Test (HBT) measures will occur 30 minutes before test meal, immediately after test meal every 15 minutes until a rise of 5ppm is detected or until 4 hours have passed. On day 2 Hydrogen Breath test measures will occur 30 minutes before test meal, immediately after test meal and every 15 minutes until a rise of 5ppm is detected or until 4 hours have passed.
次要结局
- Gastric residual volume measurement(3 days)
