Preliminary data presented at DDW suggests Atmo Gas Capsule could be used as diagnostic tool for SIBO
17 May, 2023.
Preliminary results from a University of Queensland (UQ) study to assess how the Atmo Gas Capsule compares to established SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) diagnostic methods suggest a good correlation with duodenal aspirate and higher accuracy than a breath test.
Dr Ayesha Shah, a senior lecturer at the UQ School of Medicine, presented data from the study, led by Professor Gerald Holtmann, also from UQ, and Professor Uday Chand Ghoshal of Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences, India, in a presentation at Digestive Disease Week (DDW), held May 6-9 in Chicago.
