RECRUITING
Evaluation of the Clinical Utility of Endoscopic Closure Using a Dual Action Tissue (DAT) Clip
Description

This study is designed as a multicenter prospective data recording study to document the performance of the DAT clip as part of standard medical care of patients. No experimental interventions will be performed.

COMPLETED
MANTIS Endoscopic Clipping Study
Description

This study is intended to document clinical effectiveness and safety pertaining to use of a new endoscopic clipping device MANTIS™ when used for hemostasis, closure, anchoring and marking.

Management and Removal of Foreign Bodies in the Emergency Department
Description

Management of rectal foreign bodies presents unique challenges in the emergency department. Rectal foreign bodies may consist of various compositional materials and ergonomics which include but are not limited to vegetables, light bulbs, everyday household items, and body packing of illicit drugs. Patients presenting to the emergency department with rectal foreign bodies range widely in age from prepubertal patients to older adults. Insertion of rectal foreign bodies have been classified as voluntary or involuntary, as well as sexual or non-sexual. The definition of rectal foreign bodies can be blurry, as many objects inserted via the rectum are large enough to enter the sigmoid colon. Although detailed epidemiologic data are scant, recent studies reported a progressive rise in complications related to rectal foreign bodies with incidence disproportionately higher in men and an average age in the mid 40s.

COMPLETED
Evaluation of the Ability to Detect Bowel Gas During Laparoscopic Surgery
Description

This study will determine the ability of the device to draw a small amount of gas from an insufflated abdomen during laparoscopic surgery and accurately detect if gaseous content from the bowel is present.

Surgical Site Infection Outcomes in Natural Orifice Intracorporeal Anastomosis and Extraction (NICE) Procedure - The NICE Trial
Description

The goal of this observational study is to learn if a new surgical technique, called the NICE procedure, is as safe as standard methods for treating benign left-sided colon and rectal diseases in adults. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the NICE procedure lead to similar or lower rates of surgical site infections (SSIs) within 30 days compared to traditional surgery? Researchers will gather information from hospitals across the country to evaluate how well this procedure works when performed by experienced surgeons in everyday clinical settings. Participants will: Have surgery using the NICE procedure, which uses a robotic platform and removes the specimen through a natural opening (the rectum). Be monitored for any infections or complications after surgery. Complete surveys to track their recovery, bowel function, and quality of life for up to 6 months. This study may help improve recovery, reduce pain, and lower infection risk in future colorectal surgeries.
