AIM:To identify optimum timing to maximize diagnostic yield by capsule endoscopy (CE) in patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB). METHODS:We identified who underwent CE at our institution from August 2003 December 2009.Patient medical records were reviewed determine type of OGIB (occult, overt), results and complications, respect onset bleeding. RESULTS:Out 385 investigated for OGIB, 284 (74%) had some lesion detected CE.In 222 (58%), definite lesions that could unequivocally...
Seroprevalence studies for COVID-19 evaluate the extent of undetected transmission in a defined community, with special significance among health care workers (HCW) owing to their greater exposure and potential transmit.A total 1122 HCW (approximately 25% employees) large tertiary hospital India were recruited this cross-sectional study. COVID PCR-positive excluded. Based on risk-assessment, participants grouped into three categories. A questionnaire was administered they tested...
Abstract Background Peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) of indeterminate biliary strictures aims to achieve a diagnosis through visual examination and/or by obtaining targeted biopsies under direct visualization. In this large, prospective, multinational, real-life experience POCS-guided evaluation strictures, we evaluated the performance POCS in difficult-to-manage patient population. Methods This prospective registry enrolled patients, with across 20 centers Asia, Middle East, and Africa. The...
The Indian Motility and Functional Diseases Association the Society of Gastroenterology developed this evidence-based practice guideline for management chronic constipation. A modified Delphi process was used to develop consensus containing 29 statements, which were generated by electronic voting iteration as well face meeting review supporting literature primarily from India. These statements include 9 on epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic criteria; 8 pathophysiology; remaining...
Abstract Background Persistent organ failure (POF) is the strongest determinant of mortality in acute pancreatitis (AP). There a paucity data regarding impact different POF attributes on and role characteristics systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) risk developing POF. Objective We aimed to assess association dynamic features with SIRS Methods studied 1544 AP subjects prospectively enrolled at 22 international centers (APPRENTICE consortium). First, we estimated onset, duration,...
The over-the-scope clip (OTSC) is a device used for endoscopic closure of perforations, leaks and fistulas, hemostasis. To evaluate the clinical effectiveness safety OTSC.Between October 2013 November 2015, 12 patients underwent OTSC placement by an experienced endoscopist. was gastrointestinal (GI) fistula in six patients, three which were iatrogenic (esophageal, gastric, duodenal) inflammatory. In hemostasis non-variceal upper GI bleeding. Endoscopic tattooing using India ink to assist...
Abstract Background Peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) can be useful for difficult bile duct stone clearance. Large prospective multinational data on POCS-guided lithotripsy clearing stones in a single session of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are missing. Methods Patients with (defined as one or more of: largest diameter ≥ 15 mm, failed prior attempt at clearance, impacted, multiple, hepatic location, located above stricture) were enrolled 17 centers 10 countries. The...
We have established a multicenter international consortium to better understand the natural history of acute pancreatitis (AP) worldwide and develop platform for future randomized clinical trials.The AP patient registry examine novel therapies in experience (APPRENTICE) was formed July 2014. Detailed web-based questionnaires were then developed prospectively capture information on demographics, etiology, history, comorbidities, risk factors, severity biomarkers, indices, health-care...
INTRODUCTION: Rectal indomethacin and topical spray of epinephrine have separately shown efficacy in the prevention post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP) randomized controlled trials. We hypothesized that combination on duodenal papillae would further reduce PEP than when was used alone. Methods: conducted a comparative effectiveness, multicenter, double-blinded, trial rectal alone vs for high-risk patients. The primary outcome incidence secondary severity...
Abstract Background Multisystem organ failure (MSOF) is the most important determinant of mortality in acute pancreatitis (AP). Obesity and alcoholic etiology have been examined as potential risk factors for MSOF, but prior studies not adequately elucidated their independent effects on MSOF. Objective We aimed to determine adjusted body mass index (BMI) MSOF subjects with AP. Methods A prospective observational study 22 centers from 10 countries was conducted. Patients admitted an APPRENTICE...
