Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: All adult patients with a high-output fistula (> 500ml/day) or high-output enterostomie (500ml/day) or enterostomy (>1500ml/day) for at least 3 consecutive days. * The diagnosis of fistula origin and localization confirmed by CT/fistulography/ enteral contrast MRI.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria A potential subject who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study: * Treatment with short-acting somatostatin (or analogues) in the last 2 weeks or with a long-acting somatostatine analogue in the last 2 months. * Patients with high output pancreatic fistula after pancreatitis * Patients with symptomatic gallbladder disease
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint is the number of responders in week 8. Definition of a responder is a decrease in output of >25% at week 8 compared with baseline output. Output will be assessed for 8 weeks or until surgery if within 8 weeks; in mL/24 hrs. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary endpoints are days to full oral or enteral nutrition, change in need of intravenous fluid/TPN per week, time to reach the maximal effect in fistula output, percent reduction in total fistula or stoma output from pre randomisation, total number of days in hospital, changes in needed electrolytes (calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphate, bicarbonate), wound care, quality of life (EQ-5D/qaly*s), analysis of costs, absolute fistula or stoma output volume at endpoint compared with output volume at randomisation. | — |
