Purpose Of Review:
We aim to review the types of device-assisted deep enteroscopy endoscopes, tips for a successful procedure as well as areas for improvement.
Recent Findings:
Deep enteroscopy allows for diagnostic and therapeutic intervention of the small bowel and can be used as an adjunct to video capsule endoscopy to improve the yield and management of small bowel lesions.
Summary:
Our top tips for deep enteroscopy success include reviewing patient history and prior imaging, utilizing CO 2 insufflation or water exchange, verifying quality measures and emphasizing ergonomics. With these, endoscopists can optimize patient outcomes while minimizing occupational risks. New aspects of deep enteroscopy equipment focus on high-resolution imaging, a larger working channel, and enhanced scope angulation. Proposed improvements include developing innovative technology to optimize the color and clarity of the high-resolution imaging, minimizing the number of staff required for the procedure, and decreasing ergonomic strain.
