Upper endoscopy & Colonoscopy Upper endoscopy-Procedure that visualizes the uses upper part of the gastrointestinal tract up to the duodenom Colonoscopyexamination of the large bowl and the distal part of the small bowl.
What is Capsule Endoscopy? A way to record images of the digestive tract through a small camera in the pill. It is the size and shape of a pill. (11 x 26 mm) Created in Israel. Adopted in the U. S Approved by the U. S Food & Drug Administration 2001
Structure Contains Lens 4 emitting diodes Color camera 2 batteries Radio Frequency Transmitter Antenna
Methods 1) Patient are required to fast for 12 hours before taking the capsule 2) Patients drink a Simethicone Solution 3) Thirdly, the patients have a belt tied around their waste. This belt contains a sensor. 3)Next they swallow the capsule. After they swallow it they are required to not have anything in their mouths for 4 hours.
Methods Continued 4)After 8 hours sensor is removed from them. 5) Capsule is then digested from the system. 6) The recordings are then downloaded to a computer software from the belt.
Pros & Cons Identifies bleeding in the small bowel that can not be reach High Resolution Images There are no therapeutic capabilities for it. Becoming impacted into a region due to inflammatory bowl disease, surgical adhesions etc.
Results 22 Patients were tested Capsule had a transit time of 257 minutes in the small intestine Out of the 22 patients tested only 21 capsules were retrieved Capsule were intact Bleeding sites were identified in 11 of the patients
