Abstract
Summary A triple-lumen intubation technique is described whereby absorption or secretion of water, electrolytes, and other solutes can be studied within specific and defined test segments of the human small intestine. The technique allows correction for endogenous water and solute that enter the test segment from digestive secretions. Experiments that were carried out to test the precision of the method have demonstrated the technique to have a high degree of accuracy when 1-hr study periods are used.
