The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of either elemental liquid diet or standard semi-solid diet on gastric emptying in both healthy subjects and bedridden patients receiving gastrostomy feeding.
A randomized, crossover trial using elemental liquid diet or standard semi-solid diet containing 13C sodium acetate as a tracer is performed in both healthy subjects and bedridden gastrostomy-fed patients. 13C breath tests is performed to estimate gastric emptying.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elemental liquid diet | Experimental | Elemental liquid diet (200 kcal/200 mL) is labeled with 100 mg [13C]sodium acetate and healthy subjects drink it within 5 min. Elemental liquid diet (200 kcal/200 mL) is labeled with 100 mg [13C]sodium acetate and is administered within 15 min using the gastrostomy tube. |
|
| Standard semi-solid diet | Active Comparator | Standard semi-solid diet (200 kcal/200 mL) is labeled with 100 mg [13C]sodium acetate and healthy subjects drink it within 5 min. Standard semi-solid diet (200 kcal/200 mL) is labeled with 100 mg [13C]sodium acetate and is administered within 15 min using the gastrostomy tube. |

| Elemental liquid diet | Other | This is a randomized, crossover trial. Two types of test meals (200 kcal/200 mL of either the elemental diet or the semi-solid diet) are labeled with 100 mg [13C]sodium acetate and administered within 5 min in healthy subjects or within 15 min in gastrostomy-fed patients. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Gastric emptying | 10% 30% or 50% gastric emptying (excretion) time | 4 hours |
