Effect of Domperidone on Completion Rate of Vedio Capsule Endoscopy

December 14, 2018 updated by: Ying HUANG, Children's Hospital of Fudan University

Effect of Domperidone on Completion Rate of Vedio Capsule Endoscopy: a Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) has become an established technique to investigate the presence of small bowel pathology. But the limited battery life of capsules can lead to incomplete small bowel visualization. There is a rationale to use prokinetic agents prior to VCE reduce the chances of an incomplete small bowel examination via decrease gastric transit time (GTT). Investigators are aimed to prospectively compare the completion rate of VCE in pediatric patients receiving prokinetic with those receiving no prokinetic.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Eligible children were randomly divided into two groups: domperidone prior to VCE and water prior to VCE. The primary outcome measure was the completion rate. Secondary outcome measures included the GTT and SBTT.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Completion rate of capsule endoscopy
Time Frame: assessed through study completion, an average of 1 year
CE was considered complete when the cecum was reached within recording time.
assessed through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Gastric transit time (GTT)
Time Frame: assessed through study completion, an average of 1 year
The GTT was defined as the time, in minutes, from the first image of the stomach until the first image of the duodenum.
assessed through study completion, an average of 1 year
small bowel transit time (SBTT)
Time Frame: assessed through study completion, an average of 1 year
The SBTT was defined as the passage time, in minutes, from the first image of the duodenum until the first image of the cecum.
assessed through study completion, an average of 1 year
