Introduction. Video capsule endoscopy (VSE) is a gold standard diagnostic method for small bowel diseases and is widely used in clinical practice. The presented analysis of the VCE results demonstrates the possibilities of this diagnostic tool and is the largest one of the analysis that were recently published in Russia. Aim. To demonstrate the possibilities of video capsule endoscopy in the diagnosis of small bowel diseases. Materials and methods. A total of 300 video capsule endoscopies were performed in patients with suspected and already established small bowel diseases between 2014 and 2022. All patients who underwent a video capsule endoscopy in the settings of the National Medical Research Center of Coloproctology named after A.N. Ryzhikh were over 18 years old. The study cohort included 158 men and 142 women. The average age of patients at the time of the video capsule endoscopy was 42 ± 15.4 years. The patients were recommended a standard preparation regimen: 3 days before the study, a protein diet was prescribed, and the day before, a two-stage administration of a PEGbased drug (“split dose”). To reduce gas production and decrease the amount of foamy intestinal contents, which worsens the quality of the endoscopic image, oral administration of an antifoam agent simethicone was prescribed: 80 mg on the eve of the endoscopy and 80 mg on the day of the endoscopy. Results. The video capsule endoscopy demonstrated high information value in the diagnosis of inflammatory bowel diseases: its sensitivity was 86%, and specificity – 90%. Similar results were obtained during video capsule endoscopy used to diagnose the source of possible bleeding: sensitivity and specificity were 87 and 68%, respectively. Conclusion. Video capsule endoscopy is an effective, safe and well-tolerated tool for diagnosing small bowel diseases. The video capsule endoscopy findings contribute to establishing a correct diagnosis and selecting treatment strategies.

“…There is currently a lack of data regarding the safety of CE in pregnant women. Implanted cardiac devices like pacemakers or cardioverters were initially considered a contraindication, while subsequent studies have dispelled concerns about potential dysfunction in either the capsule or cardiac devices [14]; even so, manufacturers still maintain this contraindication. The use of a remote control for insulin infusion pumps has been suggested to potentially interfere with the CE transmission [15].…”

Traditional methods have their limitations when it comes to unraveling the mysteries of the small bowel, an area historically seen as the “black box” of the gastrointestinal tract. This is where capsule endoscopy and enteroscopy have stepped in, offering a remarkable synergy that transcends the sum of their individual capabilities. From their introduction, small bowel capsule endoscopy and device-assisted enteroscopy have consistently evolved and improved, both on their own and interdependently. Each technique’s history may be told as a success story, and their interaction has revolutionized the approach to the small bowel. Both have advantages that could be ideally combined into a perfect technique: safe, non-invasive, and capable of examining the entire small bowel, taking biopsies, and applying therapeutical interventions. Until the realization of this perfect tool becomes a reality, the key for an optimal approach lies in the right selection of exploration method. In this article, we embark on a journey through the intertwined development of capsule endoscopy and enteroscopy, exploring the origins, technological advancements, clinical applications, and evolving inquiries that have continually reshaped the landscape of small bowel imaging.

“…It has been suggested that there may be a theoretical risk of EMI with capsule endoscopy, but European guidance and a review of the available literature show no evidence of any clinical risk [22,23]. Image quality may be affected rarely.…”

Guidelines for the peri‐operative management of people with cardiac implantable electronic devices

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Summary This document provides practical guidance for the management of people with cardiac implantable electronic devices who are undergoing surgical intervention. Increasing numbers of people have cardiac device implants including pacemakers, implantable defibrillators and cardiac resynchronisation devices. During surgical procedures, exposure to electromagnetic interference may lead to inappropriate device function including withholding of pacing function or shock therapies. The guideline summarises key aspects of pre‐operative assessment protocols to ensure that all people have their device clearly identified and have had appropriate device follow‐up pre‐operatively. It outlines general measures which can minimise the risk of potentially problematic electromagnetic interference in the surgical environment. It also includes detailed guidance according to the type of device, whether individuals are dependent on the pacing function of the device and the nature of the procedure they are undergoing. People identified as being at significant risk of harmful procedure‐related inappropriate device function may require temporary alteration to the device programming. This may be carried out by a trained cardiac physiologist using a device programmer or, in some cases, can be achieved by clinical magnet application. Guidance on the safe use of magnets and emergency situations is included. Common diagnostic procedures and dental interventions are covered. The guidance aims to provide specific and pragmatic advice which can be applied to provide safe and streamlined care for people with cardiac implantable devices.
