NCT06515171

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the success rate of a second bowel preparation protocol for patency capsule (PC) in Crohn Disease (CD) patients who failed to pass an initial protocol PC on a previous attempt. The main question it aims to answer is what is the percentage of patients successfully passing the second PC test, among those who failed the first attempt. Participants who will fail the PC test will be scheduled for another test with a different preparation protocol. Participants will be asked to report capsule expulsion and send a photo for documentation or report the result of the abdominal X-ray preformed 28-30 hours post swallowing. .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of second PC passaging

    The percentage of patients successfully passing the second PC test, among those who fail the first attempt.

    3 years

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • PC retention

    3 years

  • VCE retention

    3 years

  • Positive PC passage

    3 years

  • Risk factors

    4 years

Study Arms (2)

CD patients referred for PC before VCE

No intervention will be administered. Endoscopic capsule protocol will be performed in a uniform manner on all participants in the study as part of their routine clinical evaluation regardless of the study. The patient will report capsule expulsion and send a photo for documentation or report the result of the abdominal X-ray preformed 28-30 hours post swallowing

CD patients who failed to pass an initial protocol PC on a previous attempt.

All the patients who failed the PC test will be scheduled for another test with a different preparation protocol, a common practice also today. This will be done as a standard procedure, in the clinical setting of the endoscopic capsule clinic and not as part of the study. Again, the patient will report capsule expulsion and send a photo for documentation or report the result of the abdominal X-ray preformed 28-30 hours post swallowing. If the second test was positive as well, an abdominal x-ray will be performed within 2 weeks to rule out PC retention - standard protocol for PC retention.
