Brief summary

The purpose of our study was to assess the performance of esophagogastroduodenoscopy automatic quality-control system in real-time quality control of EGD.

Detailed description

Investigators developed a real-time quality control system of esophagogastroduodenoscopy(EGD) named EGD automatic quality-control system (AQCS). Investigators carried a prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial to assess the performance of this system in quality control of real-time EGD, including detecting the early upper gastrointestinal cancer and precancerous lesions, assessing inspection completeness, mucosal visibility, time of EGD procedure and other indicators.

Interventions

DEVICEComputer-aided Real-time Automatic Quality-control System

EGD automatic quality-control system(AQCS),developed based on deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) models,could facilitate real-time detection of upper gastrointestinal lesions, assess inspection completeness and mucosal visibility, and calculate time of EGD procedure.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Detection rate of early cancer and precancerous lesions on upper gastrointestinal tract confirmed by pathological examination6 monthsThe primary outcome is the detection rate of early cancer and precancerous lesions on upper gastrointestinal tract confirmed by pathological examination per group.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Detection rate of early cancer and precancerous lesions on upper gastrointestinal tract in tertiary hospitals and secondary hospitals.6 monthsEffect of detection rate of early cancer and precancerous lesions on upper gastrointestinal tract from tertiary hospitals and secondary hospitals with assistance of AQCS.
Mean inspection completeness of two groups.6 monthsInspection completeness includes taking standard images of each parts of esophageal and gastric cavity.
Mean inspection time of EGD procedure of two groups.During procedureInspection time of EGD procedure is the time endoscopy inserting to withdrawing the mouth and does not include the time of biopsy.
Detection rate of early cancer and precancerous lesions on upper gastrointestinal tract from senior, intermediate and primary endoscopist with assistance of AQCS.6 monthsEffect of detection rate of early cancer and precancerous lesions on upper gastrointestinal tract from senior, intermediate and primary endoscopist with assistance of AQCS.
