Background \& Significance Chronic benign esophageal disorders such as Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and eosinophilic esophagitis are common gastrointestinal disorders affecting nearly 20% and 0.1% of the population, respectively. Although these conditions are frequent, the diagnosis of GERD or EoE requires complex decision making involving endoscopic examination, histopathological examination, and …
Cellspan™ Esophageal Implant-Adult (CEI) The CEI is a combination product consisting of an engineered synthetic scaffold (device constituent) seeded and cultured with the patient's adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (biologic constituent), intended to stimulate regeneration of a structurally intact, living biologic esophageal conduit, in patients requiring full circumferential esophageal reconstruction …
\- Consecutive eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to esophagogastric complex only myotomy or standard myotomy groups. Randomization is done according to the computer-generated algorithm. A clinical research coordinator will prepare the sealed randomization envelops and will hand over to the operating endoscopists before the beginning of …
Achalasia is a neuro-degenerative disorder marked by changes in the peristalsis of the esophagus and the lack of relaxation in the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), thought to be due to damage to the myenteric plexus with an unknown cause.1 Per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is an established endoscopic treatment modality for …
Magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy (MCCE) is an outstanding opportunity for the painless endoscopic screening of the esophagus and stomach before small bowel examiantion. Further improvement in patients positioning might increase the esophageal transit time of the capsule endoscope and could improve the sensitivity and specificity of the esophageal MCCE investigation. …
This study is designed to perform a explorative search of the transcriptome to detect new circulating diagnostic sensitive and specific biomarkers in patients with Barrett's esophagus or esophageal adenocarcinoma.
This clinical trial study included 21 children with refractory benign esophageal strictures. Upper GI endoscopy performed up to the area of stricture, esophageal dilatation done, endoscopy repeated, and steroid injected intralesional under direct endoscopic vision. The effect of the procedure was followed over a period of 12 months by evaluation …
The goal of this research is to test a distal scanning capsule and a compact redesigned version of the OFDI imaging system in healthy and BE participants to assess ease of use, safety and feasibility in preparation for its use in a multicenter clinical trial.
This is a longitudinal cohort study to assess the impact of repeated sampling of an oral microbiome signature for Barrett's esophagus (BE). Potential participants will be identified through chart review of patients who have had an endoscopy in the past three years.
The purpose of this study is to collect prospective observational data regarding endoscopic management and outcomes of patients with Barrett's oesophagus (BO) with high grade dysplasia and/or intramucosal carcinoma. To observe the natural history of patients with low grade dysplastic and non dysplastic Barrett's oesophagus
