Virtual Chromoendoscopy With Second Generation NBI (HQ190) vs Chromoendoscopy in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Not Applicable
Conditions
Chromoendoscopy
Registration Number
NCT04403997
Lead Sponsor
Hospital Universitario La Paz
Brief Summary

Study to compare the detection of neoplastic lesions between chromoendoscopy and NBI

Detailed Description

Single-blind (patient) randomized study to compare detection of neoplastic lesions between chromoendoscopy and NBI.

Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease who are to undergo chromoendoscopy according to usual clinical criteria will be included. The endoscopic procedure is similar to the one usually performed. All patients will undergo colonoscopy according to the usual procedure, with Olympus HQ190 series endoscopes, with the same bowel preparation. During intubation, the faecal remains will be thoroughly washed.

Patients will be randomly assigned to one of the two techniques: Chromoendoscopy with 0.1% methylene blue or New generation NBI with Near focus.

Biopsies will be taken of all those lesions detected, instead of random biopsies.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Lesions detectedBaseline

Total number of IBD dysplastic lesions detected by the use of NBI virtual chromoendoscopy versus conventional chromoendoscopy

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Ratio of neoplastic lesions/total lesionsBaseline

Compare the ratio of neoplastic lesions/total lesions between both groups

Near Focus abilityBaseline

Assess Near Focus ability to optically differentiate dysplastic from non-dysplastic lesions

Non-dysplastic lesionsBaseline

Assess the number of non-dysplastic lesions detected with both methods

Total endoscopy timeBaseline

The total endoscopy time is counted from the introduction of the endoscope in the patient until its complete removal

Detection rate of dysplastic lesionsBaseline

Number of patients with at least one dysplastic lesion

Number of biopsiesBaseline

Number of biopsies taken in the different groups

Removal timeBaseline

Withdrawal time is counted from the time the cecum is reached to the completion of the test, including time spent on staining, biopsy or polypectomy
