Risks and Safety
Warning
This device does not differentiate between slow motility and functional outlet obstruction.
Non-Passage
Risks associated with capsule ingestion and transit are minimal. The primary hazard is
capsule retention. Retention incidence, as determined by a review of published studies
of capsule endoscopy in adults, is estimated as 0.75% in patients without known
stenosis and 21% in patients with known stenosis. Stenosis and strictures can be
complications in inflammatory bowel disease.
If you suspect a delay in passage and the Capsule is located in the stomach, a pro-
motility drug could be administered to assist in emptying the capsule from the
stomach. Alternatively, endoscopy could be performed in order to retrieve the capsule.
If located in the colon, laxative therapy could be administered to facilitate capsule
movement, or a colonoscopy could be performed in order to retrieve the capsule.
Adverse events reported in clinical studies involving the SmartPill are listed below.

Reported Adverse Events in Clinical Practice
In clinical practice since 2007, the company identified 25 events whose circumstances
suggested a potentially reportable event to regulatory authorities. After investigation
and follow up, seven of these events were deemed reportable including three instances
of esophageal retention, one gastric retention and three small bowel retentions.
Surgery was required for resolution in one instance of capsule small bowel retention
that led to identification of a stricture. A bowel prep resolved the second instance of
small bowel retention, and the third resolved with fluids and bed rest. Capsule
retention in the stomach was resolved endoscopically. Two of the retentions in the
esophagus were resolved endoscopically and in the third instance the patient vomited
and then performed a self-applied Heimlick maneuver to expel the capsule. There
Appendix: Electrical Safety
was one additional esophageal retention, eight gastric retentions, four small bowel
retentions and five colonic retentions. These resolved either without intervention or
with endoscopy/colonoscopy.
Patient-Contacting Materials
Patient-contacting materials include polyurethane, a polyurethane-polycarbonate blend,
Teflon coated with polyhema, an ISFET pH sensor, epoxy and UV-cured adhesive.
All patient contacting materials have been tested for biocompatibility and have been
found non-toxic, non-sensitizing, and non-irritating.
The device does not contain natural rubber latex.

Confirming Capsule Exit
Caution
Physicians should confirm capsule exit. Monitor patients until capsule passage is confirmed.
1. Use one of these methods:
xAsk the patient whether the capsule was observed in his or her stool.
xDownload the test. Analyze the MotiliGI graph for evidence of exit: an abrupt
drop in temperature or loss of signal that coincides with a diary entry for a
bowel movement.
xIf you cannot confirm capsule exit cannot using these methods, or suspect a
bowl obstruction, consider an abdominal x-ray and treat consistent with your
management of a foreign object causing obstruction. An abdominal x-ray
determines whether the capsule is retained and its location within the GI tract.
If you suspect a delay in passage and the capsule is in the stomach, consider:
xA pro-motility drug to help empty the capsule from the stomach.
xEndoscopy to retrieve the capsule.
If the capsule is in the colon, consider:
xLaxative therapy to facilitate capsule movement.
xColonoscopy to retrieve the capsule.

Procedure Deviation ± Additional Meal Before 6 Hours
Snacks or meals may be recorded in the diary. A rise in pH and drop in temperature
may indicate a meal response in the stomach. In figure above there is no evidence of
an additional meal prior to capsule gastric emptying. See the figure below describing an
ingested liquid meal
Caution
Eating anything (except limited quantities of water) before the capsule has emptied the stomach will delay
gastric emptying and invalidate GET results.
►Click Next >.
Food and liquid intake cause a rise in pH which can be mistaken as gastric emptying.
Appendix: Electrical Safety
Figure 7 - Eating a meal
In the figure above, the patient ingested a liquid meal (Ensure) at 6 hours after capsule
ingestion and ate dinner approximately 8 hours after capsule ingestion. The ingestion
of food (Ensure and dinner) caused an abrupt rise in pH (B) and a decrease in
temperature (A).
At approximately 12 hours after capsule ingestion, the pH returned to baseline (below
pH 2) and remained at baseline until the capsule emptied the stomach 18 hours after
ingestion (C).
Appendix: Electrical Safety
Select Gastric Emptying
Use GET to evaluate the patient’s gastric emptying function. Generally, an abrupt
increase of 3 or more pH units occurs as the capsule exits the stomach and enters the
duodenum.

Select Ileo-Cecal Junction
The standard small bowel pH profile shows a gradual pH rise usually followed by a
plateau of the pH pattern. Transient pH drops may interrupt this profile but returns to
their previous level within 10 minutes.
The pH drop associated with the capsule passing through the ICJ occurs after the
gradual sustained increase in pH through the small bowel. This drop of approximately
0.5–1.0 pH units usually occurs between 2–6 hours after gastric emptying. 3
Before ICJ, the pH rises smoothly and continuously in comparison to a more erratic
profile after ICJ.

Warning: Data Collected During Capsule Low Voltage
If the MotiliGI software detects a low voltage condition in the capsule, a warning
appears.
Caution
When a low voltage warning is present, body exit confirmation cannot be determined solely by temperature
drop. Low voltage may cause loss of signal before capsule exits the body. Whole gut and small/large bowel
transit times are not definitive without the body exit endpoint. Regional transit times are not valid without
start and endpoints.

Body exit
xThe time of the last temperature reading at body temperature, coinciding
with an abrupt loss of capsule data.
xThe time of the last abrupt rise in pressure.
An abrupt loss of signal from the capsule does not reliably indicate body exit. You
must corroborate (to within 30 minutes) body exit with a recorded bowel movement in
the patient diary.

Examples of Physiological Markers
Ingestion
The ingestion landmark starts the test and is the beginning of GET. MotiliGI
determines the ingestion landmark by finding the point just before temperature
stabilizes to body temperature, as illustrated below. The pH also starts to become
more acidic.
Appendix: Electrical Safety
Figure 9 - Ingestion
Gastric Emptying
Gastric emptying marks the end of GET and the start of SBTT as shown below.
Figure 10 - Gastric Emptying
MotiliGI looks for an abrupt increase of 3 or more pH unit as the capsule exits the
stomach and enters the duodenum.

A
Appendix: Electrical Safety
Factors that may influence gastric emptying include:
xMedications, therapies, and diseases that alter gastric or small bowel pH.
ICJ
ICJ is usually found between 2 to 6 hours after gastric emptying, as seen below. ICJ
marks the transition of the capsule from the small bowel into the colon. ICJ marks the
end of SBTT and the start of CTT.
How to find ICJ:
1. Locate gastric emptying
2. Look for a steady rise in pH followed by a plateau.
3. Look for a 1 to 2 unit pH drop between 2 to 6 hours after gastric emptying
xA high amplitude spike in pressure is often seen near ICJ
xAfter ICJ an erratic pH profile in the colon is characteristic
