Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Cost of each closure

    Total cost amount for equipment used in closure of GI defect

    Day 1

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Rate of complete closure of GI defect

    Day 1 (end of procedure)

  • Successful Tissue approximation

    Day 1 (End of procedure)

Study Arms (2)

Through-the-Scope clip group

EXPERIMENTAL

Through the scope Dual Action Tissue Clip (DAT) clipping equipment and technique performed in closure of GI defect area after polyp removal.

Procedure: Closure type

X-Tack suturing group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Use of Endoscopic Helix Tacking System (X-Tack) by Apollo Endosurgery for the closure of GI defect after polyp removal.

Procedure: Closure type

Interventions

Closure typePROCEDURE

Patients will have their endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) or endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) as per standard-of-care. Afterwards, patient will receive one of two intervention options for the closure of the GI defect following polyp removal.
