Summary

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an endoscopic resection technique used to treat superficial neoplasia in the gastrointestinal tract. Bleeding is a commonly encountered problem during submucosal dissection and is usually managed with electrocautery. However, this does carry a risk of deep thermal injury and perforation.

PuraStat® is a novel extracellular scaffold matrix of amino acids that forms a transparent adherent barrier when applied to a bleeding point.

The aim of this trial is to study the use of PuraStat® in reducing the need for thermal haemostasis during ESD.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

PuraStat®

PuraStat® gel is applied through a safe catheter delivery system (via endoscope) over the bleeding point

PROCEDURE
