Brief Summary

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

Colonic transendoscopic enteral tubing (TET) is a novel, safe, convenient, and reliable way for fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) and the whole-colon enema treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the methodology, efficiency, feasibility and safety of using transparent cap-assisted endoscopy for colon TET implantation.

Detailed Description

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

Our previous article has reported the method of colon TET. However, the investigators found that it was difficult to find the cavity because of the concentration of intestinal folds caused by the tube pulling after insertion of TET. It is well known that transparent cap-assisted colonoscopy is easier to flatten the semilunar folds and improve mucosal exposure. Here the investigators test the hypothesis that using transparent cap-assisted colonoscopy significantly decreases the second cecal intubation time which not only improve work efficiency, but also saves patients' anesthesia time and cost. Thus, the investigators design a prospective multicenter, randomized controlled trial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the methodology, efficiency, feasibility and safety of using transparent cap-assisted endoscopy for colon TET implantation.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

non-transparent cap-assisted endoscopic intubation

we do not use transparent cap-assisted endoscopic intubation.

Group Type OTHER

colonic transendoscopic enteral tubing

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

The procedure colonic transendoscopic enteral tubing is as follows:The TET tube was inserted into the ileocecal junction through the endoscopy channel at the first time of the cecal intubation after examination and evaluation of the whole colon. Then, the colonoscope was removed from the colon while the TET tube was maintained at the ileocecal junction. Then the endoscopy was inserted into the ileocecum again for affixing the TET tube to cecum with titanium clips.
