  • Ages 18 to 89 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: A prospective database/registry of patients undergoing endoscopic tissue apposition will be formed. Women and minorities will be included as they are frequently found to have indications for which endoscopic tissue apposition may be indicated.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients>18 years of age undergoing endoscopy for any of the following indications:
  • Indications for Tissue Apposition:
  • Closure of perforations
  • Closure of full thickness defects created during endoscopic full thickness resection
  • Closure of defects after endoscopic submucosal dissection and endoscopic mucosal resection
  • Closure of mucosotomy after Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM)
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Stent fixation
  • Closure of fistulas
  • Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery defect closures
  • Post-bariatric surgery gastrojejunal anastomosis and gastric pouch revision (transoral outlet repair)
  • Primary endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty

Who cannot join

  • Patients unable or unwilling to provide consent
  • Pregnant patients
  • Coagulation disorders (INR >1.8, platelet <50,000)
  • GI Bleeding

About this study

This study is a prospective registry of patients undergoing endoscopic suturing and/or clip placement at our institution to assess the efficacy and safety of endoscopic tissue apposition.

1.1 Hypothesis: Endoscopic tissue apposition is efficacious and safe in the practice of gastrointestinal endoscopy.

1.2 Aims: To prospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of Endoscopic Tissue Apposition in the practice of gastrointestinal endoscopy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Technical and clinical success in endoscopic tissue apposition

    Successful completion of endoscopic suturing/clipping and measured as clinical symptom improvement as well as objective evidence of resolution / improvement of underlying pathology / confirmed with radiologic contrast studies as needed..

    Measured: From baseline to one year

  2. Adverse Events

    Based on ASGE criteria

    Measured: From baseline to one year
