Recruiting studies
- NCT04900597Recruiting
Testing blended tube feeds on kids’ stomach function
This study compares how “blended” tube feeds affect stomach and upper digestive function in children who use a feeding tube. It may help doctors understand whether blended feeds change digestion in ways that matter for comfort and physiology.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 1 year+ - NCT07307027Recruiting
Feeding plan for children in intensive care
This study tests a step-by-step feeding plan (enteral nutrition) for children in the pediatric ICU to see if it improves their recovery. It might help if your child is critically ill and can receive nutrition through a tube.
Cairo, AbbasiaAges 1 month–16 years - NCT07521111Recruiting
Stomach Blood Flow and Feeding Tolerance in Critical Illness
This study examines whether measuring blood flow in the stomach using ultrasound can predict which hospitalized patients will struggle to tolerate tube feeding. Researchers hope this simple test might help doctors adjust feeding plans earlier and improve patient outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07092423Recruiting
Special liquid tube feed for brain injury patients
This study tests a special liquid formula (semi-elemental nutrition) given through a feeding tube to people with severe traumatic brain injury. It aims to see if this formula is easier on the stomach and causes fewer digestive problems than standard tube feeds.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–75 - NCT07312890Recruiting
Ultrasound to check stomach fullness in ICU patients
This trial tests whether a bedside ultrasound can measure how full the stomach is in patients on a breathing machine who are receiving liquid nutrition through a tube. If it works, doctors may avoid complications and feed patients more safely.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT06514170Recruiting
Stomach and bowel function after aortic surgery
This study looks at how stomach and bowel function changes after major aortic surgery. It may help doctors understand and prevent digestive problems in patients who need extended time on a ventilator after surgery.
Mexico City, TlalpanAges 18 years+ - NCT06821776Recruiting
Comparing feeding methods for infants with severe lung disease
This study compares two ways of feeding infants with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (a chronic lung condition in premature babies) to see which helps with feeding problems such as reflux or aspiration. Infants will try both methods at different times to find out which works best.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 1 month–1 year - NCT06609213Recruiting
Testing a nutrition drink before feeding tube placement in ALS
This trial tests if drinking a special nutrition formula for a few weeks before getting a feeding tube can help people with ALS tolerate tube feeding better. It aims to reduce side effects like bloating or discomfort.
Fort Lauderdale, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04737200Recruiting
Overnight feeding to improve sleep in ICU heart surgery patients
This trial studies whether planned overnight nutrition (through a feeding tube) can reduce sleep problems and daily body-clock disruption while you’re in the ICU after certain heart surgery. It may help you get more restful sleep and better regular “wake–sleep” timing during recovery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07219784Enrolling by invitation
Abdominal binders for feeding in preterm babies on breathing support
This study tests whether a soft abdominal binder (a wrap around the belly) helps preterm babies on breathing support keep their milk feeds going without interruptions. It might help reduce pauses in feeding and support growth.
Albany, New YorkAges Up to 1 year - NCT07583342Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
RELiZORB for feeding problems in severe pancreatitis
This study tests whether a medication called RELiZORB can help adults with moderate to severe acute pancreatitis (sudden, severe pancreas inflammation) tolerate nutrition delivered through a feeding tube. If your body is struggling to accept enough nutrition during acute pancreatitis, this trial may help you receive adequate nutrition while you recover.
Bay Shore, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07178626Enrolling by invitation
Biomarkers and feeding tolerance in ICU patients
This study looks at whether certain biomarkers and stomach motility measurements can help predict feeding intolerance in critically ill patients who cannot eat by mouth. It aims to improve how patients are fed in the ICU.
ChangchunAges 18 years+ - NCT06065839Recruiting
Does sucking on a pacifier help feeding in preterm babies?
This trial is testing if letting premature babies suck on a pacifier (non-nutritive sucking) helps them tolerate feedings better. It's for preterm infants born between 26 and 32 weeks who are tube-fed.
Taoyuan, Kwei-Shan DistrictAges 6 months–7 months

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for enteral feeding intolerance?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 13 recruiting enteral feeding intolerance studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a enteral feeding intolerance trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a enteral feeding intolerance trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
