US Endoscopy announces release of the Entrada™ colonic overtube3.3.2010
Mentor, Ohio - March 3, 2010 - US Endoscopy, a
world leader in endoscopy device design and manufacturing,
announced the release of the Entrada™ colonic overtube. The
Entrada™ colonic overtube offers more control during colonoscopy in
patients with difficult anatomy, specifically tortuous sigmoid
looping.
"Patients with difficult anatomy often present challenges for
clinicians during colonoscopy procedures," said Gulam Khan, US
Endoscopy CEO and Co-chairman. "If an 'N' loop forms during
colonoscopy, then the scope can be difficult to advance, causing
much time delay, frustration and patient discomfort. Once the loop
is reduced, the Entrada™ colonic overtube can prevent the
reformation of sigmoid loops and enable clinicians to effectively
advance the endoscope with improved control.
"The Entrada™ overtube features a flexible design to form a
smooth transition between the overtube and a range of colonoscopes.
The device also has a hydrophilic coating for ease of insertion and
scope movement.
