The Capsule – Atmo Biosciences

Introducing the Atmo Gas Capsule

An ingestible gas-sensing capsule that measures gases as it travels through the gastrointestinal tract and transmits the data wirelessly.

Evaluation of Motility Disorders

Measurements of gastrointestinal tract transit times are used for evaluating motility disorders such as gastroparesis and slow transit constipation.

GASTROPARESIS
Gastric emptying time (GET) is indicated for the evaluation of patients with suspected gastroparesis. Delayed gastric emptying is implicated in such disorders as idiopathic and diabetic gastroparesis and functional non-ulcer dyspepsia.

SLOW TRANSIT CONSTIPATION
Colonic transit time (CTT) is indicated for the evaluation of colonic transit in patients with chronic constipation, to aid in differentiating slow and normal transit constipation.

The Atmo Gas Capsule System measures whole gut and regional gut (stomach, small bowel, and colon) transit times to aid the evaluation of motility disorders.

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.
