Primary objective: to investigate the possible role of FABP/Claudin levels as a diagnostic marker for significant intra-abdominal injury (necessitating therapeutical intervention).Secondary objective: to establish the use of plasma levels of I-FABP/…
To compare oesophageal acid exposure time measured with glass, ISFET and antimony electrodes in patients with reflux symptoms.
To compare oesophageal acid exposure time measured with glass, ISFET and antimony electrodes in patients with reflux symptoms and basic pH electrode characteristics, response time, sensitivity and drift between the 3 types of pH electrodes.
The primary aim of the present study is to compare the new SBE system with the standard DBE system with respect to completeness of visualisation and insertion depth of the small bowel, as well as complications during the procedure.
Evaluation of I-FABP as diagnostic tool in mesenteric ischemia.
The purpose of the study is to define the accuracy of functional cine MRI detecting adhesions to the abdominal wall expressed in sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive value. In addition MRI findings of organ to organ…
The objective of this study is to compare TNE with conventional upper GI endoscopy in detecting esophageal mucosal abnormalities, effectiviness of barrier for microorganisme and patients experience with both techniques.
To compare oesophageal motility as well as refluxcharacteristics before and after endoscopic treatment of the Barrett segment, and to study differences between patients treated with SRER or BÂRRx.
Objective: To compare the yield of Symptom Association Probability with two approaches to investigate patients with PPI-resistant symptoms: 24-hour pH monitoring off PPI and 24-hour impedance monitoring on PPI.
Comparison of two new techniques for detection of small bowel pathology: MR enteroclysis and videocapsule enteroscopy with double-balloon enteroscopy with respect to diagnostic yield, accuracy of findings, and patient preference.
Primary objectives1. What is the pulmonary function and exercise tolerance in children born with esophageal atresia at the age of 8-18 years (group I), determined by spirometry, measurement of lung volumes and a maximal exercise test. 2. What is the…
To compare accuracy, patient experience and costs of lower gastrointestinal endoscopy (sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy) between nurse and physician endoscopists.
Determine the technical success, diagnostic accuracy, safety and quality of procedure (evaluated by the endoscopist) of the E.G.Scan* compared to conventional upper endoscopy in patients referred for diagnostic upper endoscopy.
Primary Objective: to show the differences in distribution of microbial DNA proximal versus distal in the colon as well as luminal composition versus mucosa adherent. Secondary Objective: to test whether bowel lavage has influence on the microbial…
To compare the additional diagnostic yield obtained by using the PeerScope System* extended view vs. the diagnostic yield obtained by the Standard view colonoscopy.In addition, time measurements including time to cecum, time for withdrawal and…
The primary objective is to determine whether abdominal arterial CT angiography is a feasible technique for diagnosing internal herniation after RYGB surgery. Secondary, it is examined whether arterial angiography of the mesentery is superior over…
The overall objective for this study is to train and validate EsoGuard-based diagnosis characteristics
The overall aim of the study is to develop innovative minimally invasive monitoring techniques that can identify lung inflammation in pwCF when using highly effective modulators, compared to patients whom are not eligible for CFTR modulators (…
Translation of MR technique from research to clinical setting.
main objective: Investigate the prevalence of liver fibrosis according to TE values in children enrolled in a HPN-program. Secondary objectives: Investigate the correlation between TE values and ELF test score and APRI in children enrolled in a HPN-…
