Brief Summary:
Gastrointestinal bleeding originating from the small bowel is difficult to diagnose and treat because the small bowel is difficult to see and reach Balloon assisted enteroscopy BAE is a new enteroscopy methods that allow examination of the small bowel and allows for diagnosis and treatment of bleeding originating from this part of the intestine Unfortunately BAE is unsuccessful in identifying the cause of bleeding in 40-50 of patients This may be due to limited visualization of the small bowel lining during conventional endoscopy One way to improve visualization of the small bowel lining is by adding a transparent plastic cap to the end of the endoscope camera which allows the endoscope to see around sharp turned and behind folds in the small bowel
The investigators goal in this randomized controlled study is to see if adding a transparent cap to the end of the endoscope will help to identify and treat small bowel bleeding The investigators will invite patients referred for BAE to participate in the study the alternative to participating in the study is having standard BAE without a cap If patients choose to participate in the study they will be randomized to BAE with or without a cap on the end of the endoscope Subjects time commitment will be limited to the consent process and pre-procedure paperwork at time of initial endoscopy and time required to complete telephone questionnaire at 12 months follow up
