Trial summary

Early and accurate recognition of gastrointestinal lesions has implications for public health. The quality of oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD) has great impact on the detection of oesophageal and gastric malignancies. An AI system, Cerebro, has been developed as a real-time recognition of a pre-defined 28 locations. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Use of Artificial Intelligence Real-time Feedback to Improve Compliance to a Standardised Protocol and Procedural Quality During Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD)

Early and accurate recognition of gastrointestinal lesions has implications for public health. The quality of oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD) has great impact on the detection of oesophageal and gastric malignancies. An AI system, Cerebro, has been developed as a real-time recognition of a pre-defined 28 locations. This system would alert the endoscopist if the sites were not inspected with adequate time. The aim of the study is to investigate the use of AI in endoscopists-in-training during OGD to provide a real-time feedback for ensuring compliance to a standardized protocol for examination. The hypothesis is that the use of AI system Cerebro will significantly improve the compliance to the protocol and thereby reduce the blind spot rates of OGD, ensure adequate inspection time and ensure adequate photodocumentation.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
AI armAI would be used to assist the trainee endoscopist
Receives: Diagnostic Test: The use of artificial intelligence system Cerebro
Non-AI armTrainee endoscopist would perform OGD as usual.

What is being measured

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

  1. The number of sites inspected during OGD

    There is a standardised 28 sites the trainee endoscopist need to inspect

    Measured: During the procedure

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall inspection time

    The overall inspection time during the OGD would be recorded in terms of seconds

    Measured: During the procedure

  2. The individual sites inspection time

    The individual inspection time of the 28 sites during OGD would be recorded in terms of seconds

    Measured: During the procedure

  3. The number of positive pathologies found on OGD

    The number of positive pathologies found on OGD would be recorded

    Measured: during the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dyspepsia and Anemia, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 2 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2021. 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 Hong Kong. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Shannon Chan (35052627, shannonchan@surgery.cuhk.edu.hk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The number of sites inspected during OGD (time frame: During the procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 12 May 2021.
