Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prevalence at 3.5 months of age of dumping syndrome in children operated at birth for oesophageal atresia type III et IV.

Detailed description

Consecutive patients with type III and IV oesophageal atresia that are born in 8 different centers in France and Sydney (Australia) are included in the study, if willing. As soon as they weigh more than 4.150kg and if they are still younger than 3.5 months, an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is performed. Glycemia and insulinemia are monitored every 30 minutes from intake to 240 minutes. Clinical signs that are presented are noted. If early hyperglycemia or late hypoglycemia are biologically or clinically observed, ascarbose treatment is initiated.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALOral Glucose

1.75g/kg of glucose is orally taken by the patient. Capillary glycemia is systematically realised before ingestion (H0) and after 30, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 min and/or if clinical signs of hypoglycemia are presented by the patient.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Early hyperglycemia during Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)up to 240 minHypoglycemia : glycemia \< 0,6 g/L
Late hypoglycemia during OGTTup to 240 minHyperglycemia : \> 1,8g/L from H0 to 30 min after oral intake, \> 1.7 between 1 and 2 h ours, \> 1.4 between 2 and 3 h , \> 1, 26 after 3 h

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Clinical signs presenting consequently to OGTTcontinuous monitoring during 240 minutesfrequent clinical reflux (\>3/day), suspicion of esophagitis (pain while eating), colics, post-prandial diarrhea (liquid stools in the first hour after meal), abdominal pain, flatulence, pallor, hypotonia, agitation, convulsions, somnolence, sweat
Associated pathologies1 dayneurologic, extremities, ribbs and vertebrales, genito-urinary, renal, cardiovascular, ano-rectal, microgastria and others. Syndromic associations are also noted, as VACTERL and charge syndroms.
