The Atmo® Gas Capsule is an ingestible gas-sensing capsule that measures gases directly at the source of production throughout the gastrointestinal tract.

The Atmo Gas Capsule System measures whole gut and regional gut (stomach, small bowel, and colon) transit times. Measurements of gastrointestinal tract transit times are used for evaluating motility disorders such as gastroparesis and slow transit constipation.

The Atmo Gas Capsule System is currently an investigational device exclusively for use in clinical investigations. The Atmo Gas Capsule System is pending FDA 510(k) clearance and is not available for sale.

Gut disorders are common and debilitating

More than 40% of people worldwide are expected to suffer from a functional gut disorder1, affecting quality of life and healthcare use. Functional gut disorders are challenging to manage and a third of patients are expected to remain undiagnosed or suffer from recurrence.

These disorders are characterized by chronic symptoms such as abdominal pain, dysphagia, dyspepsia, diarrhea, constipation and bloating. This condition is caused by disorders of gastrointestinal (GI) function, including dysmotility.

Motility refers to the rate that food contents move through the regions of the gut. Delayed gastric emptying and slow transit constipation are dysmotility conditions. The Atmo Capsule uses data from gas sensors and other onboard sensors to determine its location in the gastrointestinal tract to measure gut motility.

A simple, easy-to-use solution

The Atmo Gas Capsule is an ingestible capsule that measures gases directly at the source of production in the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) and transmits the data wirelessly.

The Atmo Gas Capsule System measures whole gut and regional gut (stomach, small bowel, and colon) transit times. Measurements of gastrointestinal tract transit times are used for evaluating motility disorders such as gastroparesis and slow transit constipation.

Transit times are derived from measures of temperature, hydrogen concentration, carbon dioxide concentration, along with indicators of oxygen level, capsule tumble, and antenna reflectance.

The Capsule can electronically report important data from these measures and wirelessly transmits the data which can be uploaded to the Cloud for aggregation, analysis and patient reporting.
