Official title
Intestinal Motility Evaluation by Endoluminal Image Analysis Using Capsule Endoscopy (CE-EIA): a Multi-center Clinical Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Conventional intestinal manometry is the current gold standard for the evaluation of intestinal motility, and identifies patterns of intestinal dysmotility. However intestinal manometry involves intestinal intubation with consequent discomfort for the patients, and requires considerable technical expertise and knowledge for interpretation of the data. Hence, to date this method has limited indications and is restricted to very few referral centers around the world. A novel method for evaluation of intestinal motility has been developed based on endoluminal image analysis using the endoscopic PillCam capsule, In contrast to manometry, this technique is minimally invasive, the technical aspects are simple, and the analysis is fully automated by a computer program. The technique has been validated in a group of patients with intestinal dysmotility and healthy subjects, and has demonstrated over 90% sensitivity and specificity. This technique needs now to be validated in a large multinational population, to further develop a robust discrimination algorithm for widespread diagnostic application. Furthermore, whereas manometry only recognizes neuropathic, myopathic and obstructive motor patterns, endoluminal image analysis may identify different categories of patients depending on the clinical presentation and the etiologic factors involved. This study is designed to provide evidence that the algorithm, using images created by PillCam SB2 capsules, is at least as good as small bowel manometry in diagnosing severe dysmotility.
