Detailed Description

The study objective, demonstrate superiority of the Aspero Ancora-SB balloon overtube compared to the Olympus ST-SB1 Balloon Overtube, is necessary for adoption by clinicians. Broad adoption is expected to improve procedure success rates, reduce time to diagnosis or treatment (thereby, improving patient outcomes), and reduce the burden and costs of care for patients, providers, and insurers. Investigators propose to recruit patients scheduled for enteroscopy and use capsule endoscopy to identify patients with lesions in the middle third of the small bowel. The primary outcome of interest is success in identifying the lesion, which indicates sufficient balloon control to reach and visualize the site.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Ancora-SB Overtube
Enteroscopy with Ancora-SB Balloon Overtube
A procedure that uses a specially equipped endoscope to examine the small intestine lining. An enteroscopy uses an endoscope, a tube with a light and camera on the end and the endoscope, in the case of this study, is equipped with a single balloon overtube to advance the scope deeper into the small intestine, to reach the middle third of the small bowel.
Active Comparator: Olympus ST-SB1 Overtube
Enteroscopy with Olympus ST-SB1 Overtube
A procedure that uses a specially equipped endoscope to examine the small intestine lining. An enteroscopy uses an endoscope, a tube with a light and camera on the end and the endoscope, in the case of this study, is equipped with a single balloon overtube to advance the scope deeper into the small intestine, to reach the middle third of the small bowel.

Measure Description
Time Frame
Device Superiority
Time Frame: Enteroscopy Procedure
Demonstrate superiority of the Aspero Medical Ancora-SB balloon Overtube compared to the Olympus ST-SB1 Balloon Overtube. Superiority of the Ancora-SB Balloon Overtube will be demonstrated if it achieves a success rate of ≥75% compared to a success rate of 50% with the Olympus ST-SB1 Balloon Overtube.
