Mosapride vs Metoclopramide for feeding tube problems in ICU
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests two medications, Mosapride and Metoclopramide, to see which one works better for helping ICU patients tolerate feeding through a tube. If you or a loved one is in the ICU and having trouble with tube feedings, this study may offer a solution.

This trial tests two medicines (itopride and metoclopramide) to see which works better for emptying the stomach in hospitalized patients who are fed through a tube and have a large amount of fluid left in their stomach.
This trial tests an injectable medicine, mosapride citrate, to help the gut start working again after laparoscopic intestinal surgery. It may reduce bloating, pain, and time to first bowel movement.
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.
This trial tests whether a fecal microbiota transplant (FMT)—transferring healthy gut bacteria from a donor to your digestive system—can help critically ill patients tolerate food and nutrition delivered through a feeding tube. The goal is to restore gut function and improve recovery in the ICU.
This Phase 4 study looks at gastrointestinal movement (dysmotility) and how it may increase the risk of aspiration pneumonia in children who eat through a tube and have swallowing safety problems. It may help doctors better prevent lung infections in children who cough/choke and need suction often.
This trial compares giving tube feeding continuously versus taking breaks to see which approach helps critically ill patients' metabolism better. It is for adults in the ICU who need a breathing tube and will be fed through a stomach tube.
