Study Arms (1)

Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with indication for total enteroscopy. day1: anterograde motorized spiral enteroscopy, day 2: retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy

Procedure: Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy

Interventions

Motorized Spiral endoscope will be inserted and advanced with the assistance of motorized clockwise spiral rotation, After reaching the cecum or if no further advancement of the endoscope can be achieved depth of insertion required for patient treatment or diagnosis, the endoscope will be withdrawn using motorized counter-clockwise spiral rotation, also controlled by the foot pedal. If no total enteroscopy was achieved, a submucosal ink dye injection is performed as an endoscopically visible marker of the maximum insertion depth. A retrograde peranal enteroscopy is then performed on one of the following days.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with small bowel disease with an indication for a total enteroscopy, e.g.:
  • Overt obscure gastrointestinal bleeding or obscure gastrointestinal bleeding or indeterminate iron-deficiency anaemia and positive Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) or negative VCE in patients who have ongoing bleeding shown by overt bleeding or continued need for blood transfusions
  • Abdominal pain or chronic diarrhoea with positive findings of small bowel imaging examinations
  • Noncontributory ileocolonoscopy and suspicion of Crohn's disease on small-bowel cross-sectional imaging modalities or small-bowel capsule endoscopy
  • Further evaluation of known Crohn's disease or therapeutic indications in Crohn's disease
  • Large polyps (\>10-15mm) in the jejunum and ileum discovered by radiological examination or small-bowel capsule endoscopy in patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome
  • Nonresponsive or refractory coeliac disease

You may not qualify if:

  • \- Age under 18 years
  • Health status American Society of Anesthesists Classification (ASA) 4

  • Any medical contraindication to standard enteroscopy
  • Presence of any intraluminal or extraluminal foreign body in the abdominal cavity
  • Any prior gastric, small bowel or colonic surgery, or implantable devices in these locations (cardiac pacemakers and non-abdominal implants are acceptable)
