Event or Problem Description

Olympus reviewed the following literature article: "water exchange-assisted vs.Carbon dioxide-insufflated single-balloon enteroscopy: randomized controlled trial" by shuhui liang, et al. abstract: background single-balloon enteroscopy (sbe) is a valuable but difficult modality for the diagnosis and treatment of small-bowel disease.The water exchange method has the advantage of facilitating intubation during colonoscopy.Here, we evaluated the effects of water exchange on procedure-related variables related to sbe.Methods this randomized controlled trial was conducted in a tertiary-care referral center in china.Patients due for attempted total enteroscopy were randomly allocated to undergo water exchange-assisted (water exchange group) or carbon dioxide-insufflated enteroscopy (co2 group).All patients were planned to undergo both anterograde and retrograde procedures.The primary outcome was the total enteroscopy rate.Secondary outcomes included the maximal insertion depth, positive findings, procedural time, and adverse events.Results: in total, 110 patients were enrolled, with 55 in each group.Baseline characteristics between the two groups were comparable.Total enteroscopy was achieved.In 58.2 % (32/55) of the water exchange group and 36.4 % (20/55) of the control group (p = 0.02).The mean (standard deviation) estimated intubation depth was 521.2 (101.4) cm in the water exchange group and 481.6 (95.2) cm in the co2 group (p = 0.04).The insertion time was prolonged in the water exchange group compared with the co2 group (178.9 [45.1] minutes vs.154.2 [27.6] minutes; p < 0.001).Endoscopic findings and adverse events were comparable between the two groups.Conclusions: the water exchange method improved the total enteroscopy rate and increased the intubation depth during sbe.The use of water exchange did not increase the complications of enteroscopy.The authors used the following olympus devices: patient identifier (b)(6): sif-q260.Patient identifier (b)(6): st-sb1.Patient identifier (b)(6): ofp (& maj-1606).Patient identifier (b)(6): obcu, balloon control unit.Adverse events reported: post-procedure bleeding: 1 from co2 group: one patient in the co2 group who had a gist and underwent biopsy experienced post-procedural bleeding.The patient later underwent surgical management.Cardiac mucosal laceration 1 from water exchange group: intubation ceased in one patient in the water exchange group because of cardiac mucosal laceration, which was successfully treated by conservative therapy.This is report 2 of 4 for patient identifier (b)(6): st-sb1.
