TMSET: Total Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy Trial
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Study design Prospective bicentric non-controlled clinical trial
Study purpose
- to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Novel Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy (NMSE) for total enteroscopy in patients with suspected small bowel diseases with an indication for direct visualization of the entire small bowel
Primary objective
Rate of total enteroscopy by means of NMSE with:
-
a complete anterograde approach
-
or a combined anterograde and retrograde approach
Secondary objectives
-
Procedural success of anterograde and retrograde approach
-
Procedural time (minutes)
-
Depth of maximum insertion (cm)
-
Diagnostic yield
-
Therapeutic yield
-

Experimental: Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy Patients with indication for total enteroscopy. day1: anterograde motorized spiral enteroscopy, day 2: retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy |
Procedure: Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy
Motorized Spiral endoscope will be inserted and advanced with the assistance of motorized clockwise spiral rotation, After reaching the cecum or if no further advancement of the endoscope can be achieved depth of insertion required for patient treatment or diagnosis, the endoscope will be withdrawn using motorized counter-clockwise spiral rotation, also controlled by the foot pedal. If no total enteroscopy was achieved, a submucosal ink dye injection is performed as an endoscopically visible marker of the maximum insertion depth. A retrograde peranal enteroscopy is then performed on one of the following days.
