Core Tip |
Incomplete small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) is an important limitation of the technique and may occur in up to 20% of patients. Delayed gastric passage of the capsule is a major factor leading to incomplete SBCE. Selective administration of oral domperidone to patients with delayed gastric passage of the capsule assessed with the real time viewer (RTV) effectively reduces the rate of incomplete SBCE. The administration of domperidone does not influence small bowel transit time of the capsule. There is an overall trend towards higher diagnostic yield of SBCE when domperidone is selectively administered. The use of the RTV should be adopted systematically in patients undergoing small bowel capsule endoscopy. |
