Stapler safety study for endoscopic surgery
This study uses a new stapler designed for endoscopic surgery to see how well it works. It helps surgeons cut and close tissue during procedures like lung or stomach surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having an endoscopic surgery (keyhole surgery).
- Your surgery is in general surgery or chest surgery.
- Your surgery uses the specific stapler and cartridge models being studied.
- You do not have severe swelling of the tissue where the stapler would be used.
