Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Adequate bowel preparation is required for magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) which can be achieved by two methods including administering contrast solution after mid-gut tubing and taking contrast solution orally. We present the design of randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy and compliance of bowel preparation through mid-gut tubing with taking contrast orally for MRE in patients with Crohn's disease (CD).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a open label, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. 96 patients are planed to be 1:1 randomized into one of two groups: (1) Tube group, mid-gut tubing prior to the MRE examination, administer contrast solution through the mid-gut tube; (2) Oral group, administer contrast solution orally, mid-gut tubing after the MRE examination. The primary outcome measures are: (1) grade of bowel distention evaluated by a 5-grade scale (1 = 0-20% segmental distention, 2 = 20-40% distention, 3 = 40-60% distention, 4 = 60-80% distention, 5 = 80-100% distention); (2) degree of discomfort before/during/after bowel preparation for MRE using a visual 5-grade to describe the severity of nervousness, nausea, vomiting, bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea (1 = few, 5 = very severe). The secondary outcome measure is the accuracy of lesion detection through MRE confirmed by endoscopy (within 1 month before MRE and during this hospitalization) will be evaluated by a 5-point scale (lesions locating at the terminal ileum, ileocecal junction, hepatic flexure of colon, splenic flexure of colon, and rectosigmoid colon, consistency of lesion detection from each bowel segment scoring 1 point, otherwise not scoring).
