Summary

By comparing dimethicone administration with/without subsequent repetitive position change before magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy (MCE) examination, the investigators aim to determine the efficacy of repetitive position change in improving gastric cleanliness for MCE examination.

Conditions

  • Stomach Diseases

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Position change group

Right after ingesting 5 g dimethicone mixed with 100 ml water, subjects in the position change group will be instructed to repeatedly change the body position according to a pre-specified protocol for a period of 15 min: in the order of supine to the left lateral position to prone, left lateral, supine, right lateral, and repeat last four positions twice, each for 1 min; finally supine for 1 min. Thirty and 40 min after dimethicone administration, subjects in both groups will additionally take 200 ml and 800 ml water, respectively before undergoing MCE examination.
