Introducing colon capsule endoscopy as a new diagnostic modality for patients with bowel symptoms in general practice: a feasibility study
Before conducting large-scale implementation studies of CCE, our investigation highlighted critical barriers that need addressing: (1) Time Constraints and GP Shortages: The design of task divisions between sectors should carefully consider time limitations and the scarcity of GPs. (2) Low reinvestigation rates: Minimizing reinvestigation rates is crucial to reduce strain on both patients and healthcare systems.
