Brief Summary
Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is a novel endoscopic technique for the treatment of achalasia and other esophageal motility disorders. Initially, it was introduced to the world by Inoue et al. in 2008.7 Thereafter; it was rapidly disseminated because of low invasiveness, higher efficacy and technical novelty. The steps of performing POEM include mucosal incision, submucosal tunnel creation, myotomy and closure of the incision. Mucosotomy (2.8%) is the most common adverse event in patients undergoing POEM.8 It can be due to excessive use of cautery because bleeding points could not be seen clearly with white light during active ooze. RDI will help in early recognition of the bleeding points, thus prompt hemostasis. Bleeding during POEM is not very uncommon(0.5-0.7%).9 Early recognition of bleeding points and quicker hemosasis help in decreasing complications. The utility of RDI in the peroral endoscopic myotomy is not studied so far to our knowledge. Hence in this study we would like to look into the utility of red dichromatic imaging in per-oral endoscopic myotomy.

Study Arms (2)
Red Dichromatic Imaging
Per-oral endoscopic myotomy will be performed using novel Evis X1 endoscopy(Olympus corporation, Tokyo, Japan) system. RDI mode 1 and Mode 2 will be used during the procedure. Submucosal bleb will be created by injecting mixture of indigo carmine and normal saline. RDI mode 2 will be used for submucosal injection and Mucosal incision. RDI Mode 2 helps in detection of deep mucosal or submucosal vessels which are the major cause of bleeding. Submucosal dissection and myotomy will be performed under white light. However when there is bleeding, RDI mode 1 will be used for the detection of bleeding point. Bleeding will be controlled with spray coagulation or using Coagrasper. Hemostasis treatment will be performed by switching to RDI only at the time of bleeding during the procedure.
White light imaging
Per-oral endoscopic myotomy will be performed using CV-190 Gastroscope (Olympus corporation, Tokyo, Japan). White light imaging is used during entire procedure. Submucosal bleb will be created by injecting mixture of indigo carmine and normal saline. Initial submucosal injection and Mucosal incision will be performed under white light. RDI Entry point bleed and ease of entry into the tunnel will be marked by trainee at the end of the procedure. Submucosal dissection and myotomy will be performed under white light. When there is bleeding, bleeding point is identified with white light and hemostasis is achieved
Interventions
white light imaging is often the preferred option for poem surgery due to its effective results. However, it also comes with some drawbacks that make it difficult to identify areas of bleeding, unlike RDI, WLI cannot enhance the visibility of deep vessels This can lead to longer haemostasis time as the physician must wait for a longer period before stopping the bleeding. This can make it challenging as it may lead to excessive bleeding. This makes RDI a potential solution for those seeking a more accurate approach to treatment.
Red dichromatic imaging (RDI) is a next-generation image enhancement technique which works by employing green, amber and red wavelengths. Greenlight(520-550nm) can visualize small blood vessels in superficial tissue without extending deep into the mucosa. Amber(595-610nm) and red light (620-640nm) can penetrate deep into the tissue owing to low scattering property. The blood vessels in the deeper tissues absorb the amber light because of strong affinity with hemoglobin. Even though red light can penetrate deep into the tissue, it is weakly absorbed by hemoglobin. Hence the reflected light contains red light and amber light without attenuation.
