Details and patient eligibility

About

By using three different Gastric Preparation of Magnetic-controlled Capsule Endoscopy, the investigators hope to find out the optimal gastric preparation plan.

Full description

It is a prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled trial. Patients who were conducted by Magnetic-controlled Capsule Endoscopy at Changhai Hospital will be randomly allocated into three different Gastric Preparation group before the procedure. It include clear water group which patient only drink 1000ml clear water before checking; simethicone group which patient drink 950ml clear water and 15ml simethicone before checking; simethicone combined with pronase group which patient drink 900ml lear water and 15ml simethicone and 20,000iu pronase before checking. The result were got from a relevant professional physician's blinded independent image-reading.
