Detailed Description
Background and Aims:
Motorized Spiral enteroscopy is a recent advancement in enteroscopy. Data are scarce on the utility and safety of the motorized spiral enteroscopy. No data is available on the utility of this technique in patients with altered gastrointestinal (GI) anatomy.
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of motorized spiral enteroscopy including rate of total enteroscopy (TER) in patients undergoing enteroscopy for suspected small bowel disease including those with altered GI anatomy.
Methods: A multicenter prospective study evaluated consecutive patients with symptomatic small bowel disease who underwent enteroscopy over a 12-month period.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy Procedure: Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy: PowerSpiral enteroscope will be inserted and advanced with the assistance of motorized spiral rotation, After reaching the point of maximum insertion, cecum or if no further advancement of the enteroscope can be achieved, the enteroscope will be withdrawn using motorized counter-clockwise spiral rotation. When no total enteroscopy is reached, submucosal ink dye injection is performed as an endoscopically visible marker of the maximum insertion depth. A retrograde enteroscopy is then performed in the same session or at second session |
Device: Motorized Spiral enteroscopy
Small-bowel enteroscopy for diagnosis and intervention

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The diagnostic yield of motorized spiral enteroscopy [2 days]
Diagnostic yield achieved by antegrade and/or retrograde enteroscopy using motorized spiral enteroscopy
- The therapeutic yield of motorized spiral enteroscopy [2 days]
Total number of therapeutic interventions performed during antegrade and/or retrograde enteroscopy using the motorized spiral enteroscopy
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Total enteroscopy rate [2 days]
Estimate the number of total enteroscopy procedures achieved by either antegrade only or antegrade and retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy
- Technical success [2 days]
Estimate the rate of technically successful enteroscopy procedures both antegrade and retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy
- Total procedural time [2 days]
The total time needed to complete the whole procedure of enteroscopy antegrade and/or retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy
- Depth of maximum insertion into the small bowel [2 days]
Estimation of the maximum depth of insertion (in centimeters) both antegrade and/or retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy
- Adverse events [7 days]
Total minor and also serious adverse events during and after antegrade and/or retrograde motorized spiral enteroscopy
