Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy in terms of diagnostic and therapeutic yield of PSE in patients undergoing enteroscopy by both antegrade and/or retrograde approaches for suspected small-bowel disease.
Secondary outcome
Secondary objectives were to evaluate the total enteroscopy rate, technical success, procedural time, depth of maximum insertion, performance in patients with altered GI anatomy and adverse events.
Background summary
PowerSpiral enteroscopy (PSE) is a recent advancement in enteroscopy. Data are scarce on the utility and safety of PSE. 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 PSE including rate of total enteroscopy in patients undergoing enteroscopy for suspected small-bowel disease including those with altered GI anatomy.
A multicenter prospective study evaluated consecutive patients with symptomatic small-bowel disease who underwent enteroscopy over a 12-month period.
Study objective
Powerspiral enteroscopy provides an effective endoscopic procedure. Total small-bowel enteroscopy can be achieved, in one or two sessions, even in the presence of altered gastro-intestinal anatomy. It provides a great reduction of the enteroscopy procedure time. For both antegrade and retrograde PSE procedures, propofol sedation is sufficient and safe.
Study design
1. inclusion in the study and providing informed consent
2. performing the procedure (60-90) min
3. Contact after 7 days for adverse events
Intervention
Performing enteroscopy using the motorized powerspiral for diagnosis and management of small bowel disease. For example, dilatations of stenosis or performing endotherapy for bleeding lesions. In addition to aquiring tissue samples for histopathology.
