Core Tip There is growing evidence that a slower small-bowel transit time (SBTT) increases the diagnostic yield of small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE). The present study-an analysis of a large database of consecutive, prospectively collected, complete SBCE performed for obscure gastrointestinal bleeding-confirms this finding. However, we found a correlation between SBTT and age, with age serving as an independent predictor on multivariable analysis. Prokinetics, used to increase the completion rate of SBCE, may hamper the detection rate of significant lesions and should only be used in selected patients.
