“…Wireless capsule endoscope systems include handheld viewers (e.g., Rapid ® Real-time, Given Imaging; Real Time Viewer, Olympus, America; Miro-View™ Express, Intro Medic), enabling the endoscopist to view in real-time the images of the recording procedure and terminate the examination if there is evidence that it has reached the cecum, or alternatively, prolong the procedure if necessary (59). Furthermore, it allows the endoscopist to identify stasis of the capsule in the gastric area, allowing the timely administration of prokinetics in an effort to propel the capsule to the small intestine (60).…”

Small bowel capsule endoscopy is considered a first-line diagnostic tool for the investigation of small bowel diseases. Gastroenterological and endoscopic societies have proposed and established measures known as quality indicators, quality measures or performance measures for the majority of endoscopic procedures, in order to ensure competence, healthcare quality and define areas requiring improvement. However, there is a paucity of publications describing small bowel capsule endoscopy quality indicators. Hereby, we attempt to identify and describe a number of pre-procedure, intra-procedure and post-procedure quality indicators, regarding process measures in small bowel capsule endoscopy, after a comprehensive review of the literature.
