Capsule endoscopy (CE) is a convenient and minimally invasive form of gastrointestinal visualization that has found increased favor as technology has allowed for greater quality imaging. This case addresses some of the issues with this modality emphasizing the need to assess for the contraindication of dysphagia. In this case, we describe a frail patient who aspirated a capsule endoscopy while being evaluated for positive fecal occult blood with concomitant anemia after admission for a stroke alert.
胶囊内镜检查(CE)是一种方便且微创的胃肠道可视化检查方式,随着技术的发展能够提供更高质量的成像,它越来越受到青睐。本病例探讨了这种检查方式存在的一些问题,强调了评估吞咽困难这一禁忌证的必要性。在此病例中,我们描述了一名体弱患者,在因中风警报入院后,因粪便潜血阳性伴贫血接受评估时误吸了一颗胶囊内镜。
