
Patients typically fast for two hours prior to undergoing the PillCam ESO
procedure. Upon arriving the physician’s office, patients follow the
Simplified Ingestion Procedure (SIP). While standing, a patient will first
drink 100 mL of water. They will then be asked to lie on their right side,
swallow the PillCam ESO video capsule and take one sip of water every
thirty second for seven minutes. After seven minutes, the nurse will instruct
the patient to sit upright, drink another sip of water and wait for thirty
seconds. The PillCam passes naturally with a bowel movement usually
within twenty-four hours.

Agile Capsule
Nursing Assessment/Education
Once the capsule is ingested
1. Document the time the capsule was swallowed
2. You may start clear liquids 2 hours after swallowing the capsule. You may take your
necessary medications at this time. **Nothing Red.
3. You may have a light lunch (half sandwich/cup of soup, etc) 4 hours after swallowing
the capsule.
4. You should not be near any source of electromagnetic fields (MRI, Ham radio) or
microwave oven.
5. NO strenuous physical activity, including bending over during the exam.
6. You will need to check the blue light on the top of the data recorder every 15
minutes during the exam. The exam takes approximately 8 hours.
7. DO NOT DISCONNECT the equipment during the exam.
8. DO NOT enter federal or state buildings, airports, or banks with metal detectors
while wearing the recorder.
9. Return to GI Clinic if you have nausea, vomiting or abdominal pain.

FICE LITERATURE REVIEW
Computed Imaging Modification for Enhancement of Small-Bowel Surface Structures at Video
Capsule Endoscopy
By emphasizing lesion hypervascularity and vascular morphology, FICE
might aid in differentiation of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions
This novel imaging technique has the
potential to improve the diagnostic
yield of video capsule endoscopy for
obscure gastrointestinal bleeding
