About this study

The aim of the study is to record and analyze endoscopist and endoscope motions to identify key movements in flexible endoscopy.

Read the detailed description

The increasing development of interventional digestive endoscopy raises the challenge to teach and learn complex endoscopic procedures. Nowadays experts are facing the challenge of explaining precisely an elaborate choreography of movements performed during the procedure, while novices are confronted with a broad range of hand, wrist and shoulder movements each resulting in different endoscope responses. The teaching strategy of endoscopy could benefit from a dedicated motion library that would associate the endoscopist's motion and the consequent endoscope response. A simplified endoscopic language made of individual motions could greatly shorten the learning curve.

The aim of the study is to record and analyze endoscopist and endoscope motions to identify key movements in flexible endoscopy.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Motions during gastroscopyProcedure or surgery

    Recording of endoscopist and endoscope motions right after the endoscopic exam the patient came for. The endoscope is removed halfway up the esophagus and inserted into the pylorus to the descending duodenum. The gesture is repeated three times.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Body motions recording

    Body motions recording using the Xsens tracking device. The Xsens motion tracking system consists of 17 wireless motion sensors that are applied with straps to the endoscopist without hindering natural movements.

    Measured: At time of endoscopy

  2. Endoscope motions recording

    Endoscope motions recording using the Aurora electromagnetic tracking system (NDI, Waterloo, Canada) inserted in the endoscope operating channel.

    The Aurora electromagnetic tracking system is designed for tracking tip and orientation of rigid and flexible endoscopes. The system consists of an electromagnetic field generator and a probe carrying the captors.

    Measured: At time of endoscopy

  3. Endoscope wheels rotation recording

    External video recording of the endoscope wheels rotation.

    Measured: At time of endoscopy

  4. Endoluminal images recording

    Endoluminal images recording using the endoscopic camera.

    Measured: At time of endoscopy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Motions during gastroscopy in people with Scheduled Gastroscopy Under Sedation, run by IHU Strasbourg at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Body motions recording (time frame: At time of endoscopy). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03458403, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Feb 2023.
