U.S., July 8 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07687901) titled 'Attachable Coolingbis(R) for Distal Pancreatectomy' on June 18.
Brief Summary: This pilot study evaluates the safety and technical feasibility of a new radiofrequency-assisted device, the Attachable Coolingbis(R) (ACB), when used during robotic distal pancreatectomy. Distal pancreatectomy, a common operation for tumors of the body or tail of the pancreas, carries a high risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula (occurring in 30-40% of cases) because standard stapling techniques often fail to achieve an effective biological seal of the pancreatic remnant. The ACB device applies radiofrequency energy to coagulate and seal the pancreatic...
