简要总结
Anaemia is common in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and is associated with significant recurrent bleeding risk and major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE). Esophageal-gastro-Duodenoscopy (EGD) is commonly used as an initial investigation for anaemia but is often non-diagnostic. Magnetically Controlled Capsule Endoscopy (MCCE) being less invasive and with comparable diagnostic accuracy as EGD, might be used as an alternative initial investigation for anaemia in patients with ACS.

盲法说明
Patients meeting eligibility criteria will be randomized by one of the research team staff via sealed envelopes with computer generated randomization number to one of the two study arms (0 for EGD, 1 for CE) in a 1:1 ratio, according to a central randomization scheme. Due to the nature of the interventions, researchers and patients are not blinded to group allocation.

研究组 & 干预措施
MCCE-first arm
MCCE will be performed for individuals randomized to MCCE arm within the same hospitalization of ACS diagnosis. The MCCE used in this study is the magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy (MCE, AnPx USA) which is a capsule measuring 28x12mm, and contains a permanent magnet inside its dome. Images are captured and recorded at 2 frames/s. Before the MCCE procedure, subjects will be fasted for 8 hours. Capsule will be swallowed with 10ml of clear liquid. During the MCCE examination, subjects will be asked to drink 500 to 1000ml water on demand. Once inside the stomach, the capsule will be navigated via an external magnetic guidance system to obtain a full view of the stomach. After the gastric examination, the subject wears a portable image recorder for images of duodenum and the rest of the small bowel for about 4 hours
干预措施: Magnetically Controlled Capsule Endoscopy (MCCE) (Procedure)
EGD-first arm
Conventional EGD with intravenous sedation will be performed for individuals randomized to EGD arm within the same hospitalization of ACS diagnosis by an experienced endoscopist. Similar MLD and Forest ulcer grading will be applied as in MCCE arm. Endoscopic therapeutic procedures will be performed at endoscopist's discretion.
干预措施: Esophageal-gastro-Duodenoscopy (EGD) (Procedure)
结局指标
主要结局
the occurrence of recurrent bleeding
时间窗: baseline, 30 days
A bleeding event will be defined according to international consensus by the occurrence of any of the followings: 1) overt bleeding of gastroduodenal origin including fresh hematemesis, bloody nasogastric aspiration, melena after normalization of stool colour, or haematochezia after normalization of stool colour, or 2) bleeding of presumed occult gastrointestinal origin with a documented reduction in haemoglobin concentration of ≥2 g/dl or reduction in the haematocrit by 10% or more from the baseline.
次要结局
- Any adverse events and complications from MCCE and/or from EGD(baseline, 30 days)
- Need for any transfusion(baseline, 30 days)
- Any bleeding by Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI), Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) and GUSTO definitions(baseline, 30 days)
- Change in Major adverse cardiac events(baseline, 30 days)
