Overview
The investigators developed a wearable magnet tracking system, which provided a non-invasive and high accuracy method for capsule endoscopes localization. Data fusion from multiple sensors expanded positioning range and proposed localization algorithm overcame shortcomings of existing systems. This clinical trial was conducted to verify effectiveness and stability of the tracking system.
Interventions
- Device wearable magnet tracking system
In this group, wearable magnet tracking system was used.
Primary outcome measures
- The duration of time [Time frame: 12 months]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- aged between 18 and 75
- agree to give written informed consent
Exclusion criteria
- dysphagia or symptoms of gastric outlet obstruction, suspected or known intestinal stenosis, overt gastrointestinal bleeding, history of upper gastrointestinal surgery or abdominal surgery altering gastrointestinal anatomy, or postabdominal radiation
- congestive heart failure, renal insufficiency, under therapeutic anticoagulation, in poor general condition (American Society of Anesthesiologists class III/IV), claustrophobia, metallic parts, a pacemaker or other implanted electromedical devices, or artificial heart valves
