Tiny capsule takes your Gut's temperature to spot disease
NCT ID NCT07033208
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study is testing a new device called a wireless thermal capsule, which is swallowed and measures temperature as it travels through the digestive tract. The goal is to see if it can reliably detect small temperature changes that might indicate inflammation from diseases like Crohn's. Ten healthy adults will take part to see if the capsule works as intended.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
wireless thermal capsule
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a new way to detect inflammation in the gut, helping diagnose conditions like Crohn's disease earlier.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 10 healthy people. It only checks if the capsule can measure temperature accurately, not whether it can diagnose any disease.
