The Usage of Soda-Water in Gastric Preparation for Magnetically Controlled Capsule Endoscopy

This is a prospective, single blind, randomized controlled clinical study approved by the Endoscopy Center of Changhai Hospital in Shanghai from July, 2020 to September,2020. Approval to carry out this study was granted by the Ethics Committee, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University. According to the results of our pilot study, 252 participants(with 20% withdrawal rate) aged 18-75 will accept standard gastric preparation or gastric preparation with soda water randomly (ratio 1:1).All patient will provid written informed consent for this study before undergoing baseline MCE. Investigators evaluated the feasibility of a novel gastric preparation methods regimens on gastric distention,gastric cleansing, feeling of fullness, diagnostic yield, satisfaction questionnaire, gastric transit time, small bowel transit time and completion rate. The safety were evaluated at two week after procedure for the occurance of adverse events. Investigators also plan to explore whether soda water can affect the subsequent examination of the small intestine, and the difficulty in intervention under special circumstances. All participants underwent a bowel preparation that consisted of a low-residue diet for 24 hours, fluid intake, and ingestion of 2L polyethylene glycol-based electrolyte solution 12 hours before the examination. On the examination day, participants arrived at hospital in the morning after an over night fast (\>8hours). Then they would be randomly assigned to controll group or soda group. Control group:40 minutes before capsule ingestion, all participants swallowed 100ml clear water containing 50mg simethicone. During the period, participants were asked to have a proper walk to wash out bubbles. An additional 900ml clear water was drunk to obtain good vision before undergoing MCE examination. Soda water group：Control group:40 minutes before capsule ingestion, all participants swallowed 100ml clear water containing 50mg simethicone. During the period, participants were asked to have a proper walk to wash out bubbles. An additional 400ml soda water was drunk to obtain good vision before undergoing MCE examination. Then, the patient enter the examination room to finish the examination.
