Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
After removing large polyps from the gastrointestinal tract, gastroenterologists close the new defect with devices to prevent complications like bleeding or the development of a leak. Commonly, this is done with a device called Overstitch, which allows the gastroenterologist to stitch the defect with an endoscope. A new device called X-tack has been developed to simplify endoscopic stitching. In this study, the new X-tack device will be compared to Overstitch when closing defects in the gastrointestinal tract. The two devices will be compared to see how long it takes to close a defect, as well as if there are any differences in complications like bleeding or infection.
