Secondary objective: 1. Technical success of anterograde and retrograde approach 2. Procedural time (minutes) 3. Depth of maximum insertion (cm) 4. Diagnostic yield 5. Therapeutic success 6. Adverse events
In this prospective randomized controlled trial, pediatric volunteers were enrolled and randomly underwent mini-sized MCE and normal-sized CE to compare the success rate of self-swallowing between mini-sized MCE and normal-sized CE during gastrointestinal examination.
Gastrointestinal symptoms are commonly reported in as much as 65% of people with CF even independent of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) and the most frequent of these symptoms are bloating/distension, flatulence, abdominal pain and bowel habit changes. An alteration in the intestinal microbiome due to intestinal dysmotility, inflammation or other changes including pH changes in the intestine related to CFTR gene mutation may cause intestinal dysbiosis leading to a bacterial overgrowth in the proximal small intestine which may explain some of the findings of distension and bloating in CF. Our small pilot study aims to investigate use of the only FDA-approved antibiotic, rifaximin for a GI syndrome- IBS, to treat bloating and global GI symptoms in CF patients with bloating and distension. Our goal is to recruit patients >12 years and age/sex matched into rifaximin and placebo arms with total of 100 recruited subjects recruited.
Examination of the small bowel has been considered a challenge for several anatomical (i.e. distance from external orifices, length) and physiological (i.e. active peristalsis) reasons. Conventional techniques of endoscopy are limited by length while radiologic examinations, such as barium studies, are insensitive for evaluating small bowel pathology. An ingestible miniature camera device capable of obtaining images of the whole small intestine was developed due to a need for the exploration of this "final frontier". The purpose of this article is to review and share our institution's results using small bowel capsule endoscopy, with special reference to the existing literature.
The tongue images of patients with gastrointestinal diseases and healthy people will be collected and the tongue image database will be established. Through deep learning and artificial intelligence, early screening models of various gastrointestinal tumors based on tongue images were constructed.
This study uses a comparative method to evaluate the performance of the NaviCam SB capsule endoscope system in comparison to the PillCam SB3 capsule system for the diagnosis of small bowel diseases.
Radionuclide scintigraphy is the gold standard technique to interpret OCTT but there is no normative data available for its interpretation in Indian population. Previous studies to determine OCTT have all been done with LHBT, which has many limitations. Besides there are few small comparative studies between scintigraphy and LHBT, that too not in Indian population. The aim of this study is to validate LHBT to measure OCTT compared with scintigraphy and to standardize the normal OCTT in healthy individuals
Small bowel evaluation using Novel Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy - Prospective non-controlled clinical study from a single tertiary care centre. Data regarding the safety and efficacy of Novel Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy in the evaluation of the small bowel, most of them are retrospective. This study is being planned to collect the data prospectively for all the patients undergoing this procedure at our center including the follow up at 1 month for any adverse events.This will enlighten us in understanding the role of Novel Motorized Spiral in the evaluation of the small bowel Enteroscopy in the small bowel evaluation.
Multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy of the motorized spiral enteroscope in the management of small bowel diseases.
