Table 2. Ten tips and tricks for an effective SBCE reading.

1.	Get your training sorted! Achieving competency before starting SBCE reading is mandatory and maintaining proficiency thereafter is vital
2.	Avoid CE reading if you are tired; it is a long and tough process requiring focused attention
3.	Avoid CE reading in between other gastrointestinal procedures or tasks; instead, set up dedicated reading slots (45–60 min each)
4.	Set up an inspiring and dedicated SBCE reading environment, i. e. quiet room with dimmable lights, big-sized screen etc.
5.	Collect as much clinical data as possible before SBCE reading; you are not just describing findings; you are also participating in a diagnostic process
6.	Follow a predefined sequence; pre-reading, landmarking, findings & clips selection and reporting; don’t forget to check gastrointestinal segments outside the SB
7.	Slow down, whether you are an expert or a novice reader, and consider a slower reading speed in the proximal SB. Avoid high (e. g. 18–20 fps) speeds
8.	Be proactive; move through the video and compare images or findings to other videos, online resources or in-print libraries
9.	Set up a SB multidisciplinary team and whenever possible compare your findings with the results of other diagnostic procedures (e. g. device-assisted enteroscopy, surgery, radiology imaging). It is critical to reappraise both morphology and clinical relevance of SBCE findings
10.	Enjoy reading CE or relinquish the task
