SmartPill: Ingestible Capsule Technology

SmartPill is a single-use, ingestible Capsule that measures pressure, pH and temperature throughout the entire GI tract.

Once a patient ingests SmartPill, the Capsule transits the GI tract by peristalsis, transmitting data continuously for five days or more to a Data Receiver worn by the patient. The SmartPill Capsule is typically passed within a few days.

SmartPill's MotiliGI TM software is used to analyze the data, indicating results such as:
• Gastric emptying time
• Small bowel transit time
• Colonic transit time
• Whole gut transit time
• Antral and duodenal pressures
• Motility indices
Results are used for the evaluation of gastroparesis and chronic constipation.
