Polypectomy Snare

The Polypectomy Snare is a medical device used in endoscopic procedures to remove polyps from the digestive tract. It consists of a wire loop that captures and cuts polyps safely. This tool is vital for preventing complications like colorectal cancer.

Evolution of the Polypectomy Snare
Polypectomy Snares were first introduced in the 1970s as endoscopy became more common. Early designs were simple wire loops, but advancements led to more precise and safer devices. Modern snares, like those from Advin Health Care, offer hot and cold snaring options. These innovations have improved patient outcomes significantly.

Polypectomy Snare: Sharp Precision for Clean Polyp Capture

Advin Health Care designs Polypectomy Snares to ensure precision and safety during endoscopic resections. The device’s braided wire loop provides strong radial force for effective polyp removal. Its ergonomic handle allows healthcare providers to maneuver with ease, reducing procedure time. Advin Health Care prioritizes patient safety with sterile, single-use snares to prevent cross-contamination. This versatile tool handles polyps of various sizes, making it indispensable in gastroenterology.

Associated Surgical Procedures

Polypectomy Snares are commonly used in:
Colonoscopy: To remove colorectal polyps, preventing cancer.
Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR): For larger, flat lesions.
Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD): For precise resection of complex polyps.
Gastroscopy: To address gastric polyps in the stomach.

Usage Guidelines

  • Insert the endoscope into the patient’s digestive tract to locate the polyp.
  • Advance the Polypectomy Snare through the endoscope’s working channel.
  • Position the open snare loop around the polyp’s base.
  • Close the loop gently to capture the polyp, ensuring no excess tissue is trapped.
  • For hot snaring, apply low-power coagulation current (15-25W) to cut and cauterize.
  • For cold snaring, use mechanical force to resect small polyps.
  • Retrieve the polyp for pathological analysis using a trap or net.
  • Inspect the site to ensure complete removal and no bleeding.

Patient Safety & Comfort Considerations

Advin Health Care’s Polypectomy Snares prioritize patient safety by using low-power settings for hot snaring to minimize thermal injury risks, such as post-polypectomy syndrome. Cold snaring options are ideal for smaller polyps, reducing bleeding and perforation risks, especially in patients on anticoagulants. The device’s design ensures minimal discomfort during procedures, promoting faster recovery.
