Official title
Clinical Luminal Endoscopic Assessment of a Novel Suction (CLEANS) Technique for the Treatment of Esophageal Food Impaction
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety, performance, and efficacy of a novel endoscopic technique for resolving esophageal food impactions by using a novel hollow suction catheter, Piranha GI Aspiration Catheter, to core out and suction food away from the center of an impaction. This technique includes hollowing out the center of the impaction, thus reducing the volume of the food bolus in the center, allowing the food to collapse into the hollow center, and then allowing for spontaneous food passage into the stomach. The study design is based on the experience of the investigators and the general knowledge of the food impaction field. In addition, consideration was given to previous studies of endoscopic treatments for esophageal food impaction.
