Study summary

This is a randomized trial to compare the standard echoendoscope with the newly developed EndoSound Visual System in the evaluation of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract.

Read the detailed description

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is the gold standard for evaluation and biopsy of lesions in the pancreaticobiliary tract, subepithelial lesions in the gastrointestinal tract and luminal cancer staging due to its high sensitivity and specificity. Endoscopic ultrasound examination is performed by echoendoscopes, which are endoscopes with an ultrasound probe at the distal end to allow endoscopic ultrasound evaluation. A new endoscopic ultrasound system - the EndoSound Visual System has now been developed for endoscopic ultrasound examination. The EndoSound Visual System is a device that can be attached externally to upper gastrointestinal endoscopes, thereby converting a standard endoscope into an echoendoscope which can then be used to perform an EUS examination.

The aim of this randomized trial is to compare the standard echoendoscope with the newly developed EndoSound Visual System in the evaluation of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Rate of successful completion of the requisite EUS examination

    Rate of successful completion of the requisite examination during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, compared as a percentage of successfully completed examinations between the standard echoendoscope and Endosound Vision System.

    Time frame: 1 day

Secondary outcomes

  1. Ease of maneuverability of the device

    The ease of maneuverability during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, based on a rating scale of 1 to 5 (whereby 1 is the most easy to maneuver and 5 is the most difficult to maneuver).

    Time frame: 1 day

  2. Quality of EUS imaging

    The quality of EUS imaging during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, based on a rating scale of 1 to 5 (whereby 1 is the best quality imaging and 5 is the worst quality imaging).

    Time frame: 1 day

  3. Ease of performing tissue acquisition

    The ease of performing tissue acquisition during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, based on a rating scale of 1 to 5 (whereby 1 is the most easy to perform and 5 is the most difficult to perform).

    Time frame: 1 day

  4. Diagnostic adequacy of procured specimen on onsite evaluation

    Rate of diagnostic adequacy of procured tissue specimen on onsite evaluation between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.

    Time frame: 7 days

  5. Diagnostic adequacy of procured specimen in cell block

    Rate of diagnostic adequacy of procured tissue specimen in cell block between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.

    Time frame: 7 days

  6. Diagnostic accuracy of procured specimen

    Rate of diagnostic accuracy of procured tissue specimen between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.

    Time frame: 7 days

  7. Procedure duration

    Duration of procedure between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.

    Time frame: 1 day

  8. Rate of procedure-related adverse events

    Rate of procedure-related adverse events between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.

    Time frame: 7 days

  9. Procedure costs

    Costs associated with the endoscopic ultrasound procedures between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.

    Time frame: 7 days
