Brief Summary:
In this study, the investigators propose to use mucosal impedance (MI), a minimally invasive technology, to detect mucosal damage (i.e. barrier dysfunction) based on mucosal conductivity changes in the colonic epithelium.
Detailed Description:
The intestinal epithelium functions to separate luminal contents from the interstitium. Increased intestinal permeability can represent compromise of the epithelium's integrity. Prior research has demonstrated that defects in intestinal barrier function are associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and increased intestinal permeability can be important in the maintenance of remission in IBD patients. There is currently not a convenient way to measure colonic epithelial barrier function in real time which could provide clinically relevant information .
