Normal Values for Sincalide Cholescintigraphy: Comparison of Two Methods
Radiology, 2001To establish normal gallbladder ejection fraction (GBEF) values for two sincalide (cholecystokinin [CCK]) infusion dose rates, 0.01 microg per kilogram of body weight infused for 3 minutes and 0.01 microg/kg infused for 60 minutes.Twenty healthy subjects were examined.

Sincalide in Patients with Parenteral Nutrition—Associated Gallbladder Disease
Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2004OBJECTIVE To review the role of sincalide in treating and preventing parenteral nutrition (PN)–associated gallbladder disease. DATA SOURCES A MEDLINE (1996–March 2004) search was performed using the key terms cholecystokinin, sincalide, parenteral nutrition, cholelithiasis, cholestasis, and sludge.

Compounded Versus Proprietary Sincalide for Evaluation of Gallbladder Ejection Fraction
Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2004OBJECTIVE To report a comparison of compounded and proprietary sincalide in the evaluation of gallbladder ejection fraction during hepatobiliary scintigraphy. CASE SUMMARIES Two patients were referred to nuclear medicine with symptoms consistent with hepatobiliary dysfunction.

Kinevac (Sincalide for Injection)/Squibb Diagnostics
Gastroenterology Nursing, 1991Sincalide is a rapid-acting, synthetic analog of cholecystokinin for intravenous use in postevacuation cholecystography. Serious reactions to sincalide have not been reported. The intravenous administration of sincalide causes a prompt contraction of the gallbladder as compared to the stimulus of a fatty meal which causes progressive contraction that ...

Pharmacological manipulation of sincalide (CCK-8)-induced suppression of feeding
Peptides, 1983The current study involves an investigation of the possible neurotransmitter systems involved in the ability of exogenously administered sincalide (cholecystokinin octapeptide, CCK-8) to suppress feeding. Male rats previously trained to obtain food either during a daily 3-hr session, or conditioned to obtain food pellets on a fixed-ratio or fixed ...

Practical Hepatobiliary Imaging Using Pretreatment with Sincalide in 139 Hepatobiliary Studies
Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1985Hepatobiliary studies were performed over a three-year period on 139 patients suspected of having cystic duct obstruction. Each patient was infused intravenously with sincalide, a C-terminal octapeptide of CCK, 15 minutes prior to the administration of the hepatobiliary imaging agent Tc-99m paraisopropyl iminodiacetic acid (PIPIDA).

Treatment of vincristine-induced ileus with sincalide, a cholecystokinin analog
Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology, 1982Sincalide, a synthetic analog of cholecystokinin capable of stimulating bowel motility, has been administered to 12 patients with symptoms and signs of vincristine-induced ileus. Patients were given intravenous infusions of sincalide 0.01 microgram/kg/h over 2-24 h (mean, 8 h) for 1-12 days (mean, 5 days), usually until all evidence of ileus had ...

Lyophilization of Sincalide and Correlation of Headspace Relative Humidity with Product Stability
Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1978An optimum freeze-drying cycle was developed for use with industrial equipment in the processing in vials of a product degraded by traces of moisture. The relative humidity of the headspace gas of the vials, which contained only 5 microgram of active ingredient, was monitored by a GC method and was then correlated with product stability.

Normal Gallbladder Ejection Fraction Occurring Unexpectedly Obviates Need for Sincalide Stimulation
Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2017A 25-year-old man was referred for chronic right upper quadrant abdominal pain for hepatobiliary scintigraphy to evaluate the gallbladder (GB) function. An unexpected GB contraction with ejection fraction (EF) of 90% was observed during the first hour of baseline imaging. Subsequent stimulation with sincalide produced GB EF of 99%.

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1995
An 82-year-old man had his third episode of melanotic stool. Two previous workups had failed to localize the source of bleeding. A Tc-99m labeled RBC scan visualized the gallbladder early in the study. Administration of sincalide visually decreased the activity, confirming gallbladder activity.
