Poop pills vs. colonoscopy: new hope to stop Crohn's comeback
NCT ID NCT05248191
Summary
This study tested whether taking fecal transplant capsules works as well as receiving it via colonoscopy to prevent Crohn's disease from returning after surgery. Researchers compared the two methods in 23 people with Crohn's who had recent bowel surgery. The goal was to see if the capsules could deliver helpful gut bacteria as effectively as the more invasive colonoscopy procedure.
