Sclerotherapy Needle – A Key Tool for Gastrointestinal Bleeding Management

What is a Sclerotherapy Needle?

A Sclerotherapy Needle is a medical device used to inject sclerosing agents into targeted areas of the gastrointestinal tract. It plays a crucial role in controlling gastrointestinal bleeding during endoscopic procedures. The needle is especially effective in treating esophageal varices, gastric varices, and bleeding lesions.

A Brief History of Sclerotherapy Needles

Sclerotherapy as a treatment method has been used since the early 20th century, initially for varicose veins. The development of specialized sclerotherapy needles for gastrointestinal use gained momentum with advancements in endoscopic techniques. Over time, these needles have evolved to include improved locking systems and more ergonomic designs. Today, they are widely used in GI bleeding management worldwide.

How Sclerotherapy Differs from Band Ligation

Sclerotherapy uses a needle to inject a sclerosing agent into bleeding varices, causing them to shrink. Band ligation, on the other hand, places rubber bands around the varices to cut off blood flow. Sclerotherapy is often used during active bleeding, while banding is preferred for prevention. Both are effective but used based on clinical need.
