Evaluating a new clip for closing gastrointestinal defects

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to document the performance of the Dual Action Tissue (DAT) clip during standard endoscopic procedures for patients with gastrointestinal issues. The DAT clip is designed to effectively close larger defects and perforations in the GI tract, which traditional clips may struggle to manage. By collecting data from multiple centers, the study seeks to assess the clinical utility of this innovative device in real-world settings without introducing experimental interventions.

Why it matters

Who can join: the full rules

Inclusion Criteria:

* Age 18 years or older.
* Patients scheduled to undergo endoscopic procedures as part of their routine care in which endoscopic clip closure is clinically indicated:

Treatment of bleeding Treatment of perforation and/or fistulas Tissue approximation for mucosal gaps associated with endoscopic resection (e.g., endoscopic mucosal resection, endoscopic submucosal dissection) or third space endoscopy (e.g., peroral endoscopic myotomy in the gastrointestinal tract)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any contraindications to performing endoscopy.
* Participants in another research protocol that could interfere or influence the outcomes measures of the present study.
