Study Summary

This trial is testing a new way to collect small intestine fluid during endoscopy, which may be quicker and less prone to contamination than the current method.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women aged 18-85 who are already scheduled to undergo an esophagogastroduodenoscopy, a type of endoscopic examination. There are no specific exclusion criteria since the procedure is being done for medical reasons unrelated to the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a new capillary endoscopy aspiration catheter against the standard one during endoscopies at Cedars Sinai Medical Center. It aims to compare how well and quickly each catheter can collect fluid from the small intestine in two groups of 23 patients.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves using different types of catheters during a standard diagnostic procedure, there may not be additional side effects beyond those typically associated with an endoscopy, such as discomfort or minor bleeding.
