ScopeReady
Catching a full stomach before the scope.
A research-stage model that predicts, before an upper endoscopy, which patients will still have food in the stomach, so prep can be adjusted and same-day cancellations caught early.
Leftover food cancels scopes on the morning
If a patient turns up with food still in the stomach, the procedure is called off, the slot is wasted, and they're rebooked weeks later. One-size-fits-all fasting rules ignore how much this risk varies from patient to patient.
The model estimates each patient's risk from routine pre-procedure information, flagging who needs longer prep or a new date before they even travel in. Currently validating with clinical partners.
- Predicts risk from routine pre-procedure details.
- Longer prep for the patients who need it.
- Fewer same-day cancellations and rebookings.
Who should partner with us
Endoscopy units and GI research groups who want to test it on their own patients. A partnership, not a purchase.
Validation
The retained-food model was accepted as an abstract at the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) 2026 Annual Meeting.
