• If subject was referred for capsule endoscopy (CE) for identification of occult GI bleeding, has the subject undergone a non-diagnostic esophagoduodenoscopy and colonoscopy as part of their evaluation, OR has the subject had continued bleeding requiring transfusion since the initial evaluation, OR does the subject have the following hematocrit values <31% in males or <28% in females.

You may not qualify if…

• Subjects who had a prior negative capsule endoscopy (within 1 year of study).
• Known or suspected obstruction or stricture unless patency capsule confirms patency.
