NCT03482661

Brief Summary

Patients referred for magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy (MCE) in the participating center from June 2017 to November 2017 were prospectively enrolled. Magnetic steering of MCE was performed after standard gastric examination. Capsule endoscopy completion rate (CECR), gastric transit time (GTT), pyloric transit time (PTT) and rapid gastric transit rate (GTT ≤ 30 min) were compared with the historical control group enrolled from January 2017 to May 2017.

Study Arms (2)

Control

NO INTERVENTION

The patients swallowed the capsule with water in the supine position. When the capsule reached the stomach, the capsule was lifted away from the posterior wall, rotated and advanced to the fundus and cardiac regions, and then to the gastric body, angulus, antrum and pylorus. After completing the stomach examination, the capsule moved automatically without magnetic control and entered the duodenum under physiological conditions. The position of the capsule was verified through real-time viewer.

Magnetic steering

EXPERIMENTAL

After finishing the stomach examination as the control protocol, the capsule was lifted with the magnetic control, then rotating the capsule until the camera end oriented toward the pylorus . Next, the endoscopist could drag the capsule close to the pylorus with the guidance magnet robot, waiting for the open of pylorus. Once the pylorus opened, the capsule could enter the duodenum with gastric peristalsis.

Other: magnetic steering

Interventions

The capsule was controlled to pass through the pylorus by magnet steering.
