## Indications for use
The Atmo® Gas Capsule System measures whole gut and regional gut (stomach, small bowel, and colon) transit times. Measurements of gastrointestinal transit times are used for evaluating motility disorders. 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. 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. In the case where ileocecal junction transit cannot be determined, the system will report combined Small and Large Bowel Transit Time (SLBTT). Transit times are derived from measures of temperature, hydrogen concentration, carbon dioxide concentration, and contractility frequency, and indicators of oxygen level, Capsule tumble, and antenna reflectance. The device displays a contractility frequency map based on measurements of capsule movement caused by gastrointestinal pressures and contractions. Not for use in pediatric patients.
