Official title

Measurement of Whole Gut Transit Time After a Dietary Fiber Treatment Using a Wireless Motility Capsule

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Research suggests dietary fiber may decrease transit time through the gastrointestinal tract. Research studies traditionally use radio-opaque markers to determine gastric emptying, colonic transit, and whole gut transit time. The SmartPill is a single use pill that can be used to determine gastric emptying, colonic transit, and whole gut transit time without requiring X-rays or fecal collections. Previous studies have found radio-opaque markers and the SmartPill detect the similar transit times. The purpose of this pilot study is to determine if the SmartPill can detect a change in transit time using a significant dose of dietary fiber.
