776 CO2-Insufflation During Single Balloon-Enteroscopy: a Randomized European Multicenter Trial

The use of CO2 as insufflation gas during endoscopic procedure has already shown advantages regarding procedure-related pain and discomfort compared to standard air-insufflation. Additionally, CO2-insufflation leads to greater oral insertion depth during double-balloon enteroscopy. The aim of the present study is to examine whether CO2-insufflation also leads to a reduction of abdominal pain in single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE) patients and facilities a deeper insertion of the small bowel.
