Study Summary

The research study is designed to test how a medication called octreotide affects the motility (contraction or squeezing) of the colon (large intestine). Investigators are investigating whether octreotide can increase contraction and movement in the colon.

Primary Outcome

Colonic motility was measured using a solid-state catheter. The catheter had 36 sensors spaced 5-cm apart for the first 15 sensors and 1-cm apart for the remaining sensors. Pressures were transmitted to a transducer and recorded on a personal computer system (Medical Measurement Systems USA, Dover, NH). Motility index (MI) was calculated using the Medical Measurement Systems computer program. The MI represents the area under the curve of the pressure tracing for a certain period (21). The MI wa
