Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
the percentage of complete visualization of anatomic landmarks2 yearthe percentage of patients in whom there was complete visualization of the gastric surface in the antrum, body, and fundus and identification of the cardia and pylorus
examination time and the percentage of abnormal finding2 yearexamination time and the percentage of abnormal findings seen on gastroscopy that were reproducible by capsule endoscopy

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
adverse effect2 yearany discomfort like chest pain, nausea will be documented. capsule retention(defined as not extrusion in 14 days)will be documented.
Acceptability2 yearAcceptability to patients was assessed by means of a questionnaire, with ratings on a scale of 0 to 10 and examination chosen for next time. completed in the recovery room immediately after capsule examination.
