NCT ID NCT04577456

Completed Disease control Sponsor: The Insides Company Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Summary

This study tested a new medical device designed for people with severe intestinal leaks (fistulas) or surgical openings (ostomies) that cause dangerous fluid loss. The device works by collecting digestive fluids from the leak and safely returning them further down the intestine. Researchers aimed to see if using this device could help patients rely less on intravenous (IV) nutrition, prevent dehydration, and improve their overall health and quality of life.
