New single-use gastroscope compared to standard for bedside use
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a single-use gastroscope used at the bedside versus the standard reusable gastroscope used in the endoscopy unit. It aims to see if the bedside scope works as well for patients who are already in the hospital and need an upper endoscopy without general anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study asks patients like you to share their experience about using a single-use gastroscope during an elective or subacute upper endoscopy. Your feedback will help doctors understand how these disposable scopes work in everyday practice.
This study compares single-use and reusable gastroscopes to see which works better during stomach exams done in the operating room. It may help you understand the tools used in your procedure.
This trial is testing a new disposable endoscope to see if it works well for procedures that treat swallowing or digestive problems. If you need this type of procedure, the new scope could be an option.
This study tests a special aspiration (suction) catheter used during an upper GI endoscopy to see how well it works during routine care. It may help doctors improve how they clear fluid or residue during the procedure.
This study checks how well a special endoscopy tool (a duodenoscope) works and records technical outcomes during ERCP or related procedures you need for your care. It may help improve future safety and performance of the equipment used in these procedures.
This study compares the accuracy of a stomach ultrasound (a painless scan) with a traditional tube test (gastroscopy) to see how much food or fluid is left in the stomach. This could help doctors know if the stomach is empty before procedures, reducing risks.
