Reducing Injury, Improving Outcomes: A Safer Approach to Colonoscopies


Listen Later

How often have you been asked to apply abdominal pressure during a colonoscopy? This practice isn't just tough on the team—it also poses serious risks to both the staff and the patient. Join us in this First Case Vendor SpotlightTM as we learn about colonoscopies and as we explore the very real dangers of manually applying abdominal pressure. In this eye-opening conversation, James Hathorn, CEO and Founder of ColoWrap®, highlights a common complicating factor in colonoscopy, scope looping, that results in up to 1 in 3 procedures that either aren't completed or are completed while putting the patient and caregiver at risk. Plus, discover the only safe, proven looping solution on the market that is non-invasive and easy to use. ColoWrap® was developed by a high-volume clinical gastroenterologist and is the first clinical solution to mitigate the need for manual abdominal pressure during colonoscopy. ColoWrap® improves throughput, reduces cecal intubation time, and empowers organizations to deliver a safer environment for patients, staff, and providers.
