DUAL MECHANISM DYNAMIC ANCHORING BYPASS (DDAB) SYSTEM FOR METABOLIC DISEASES

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video presents a novel endoscopic bariatric and metabolic device that aims to address the unmet need for minimally invasive interventions in obesity and metabolic diseases. The device has a gastric component that delays stomach emptying and a small intestinal component for metabolic benefit. It utilizes a unique anti-migration system that keeps it anchored, minimizing damage to the organ it is attached to. The device is compatible with laparoscopic or endoscopic EUS-guided gastrointestinal systems. Animal experiments have shown that the device effectively halts weight regain without migration or trauma. Additionally, an endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty technique can be used in conjunction with the device for further weight loss. Overall, this video demonstrates the feasibility and efficacy of the dynamic dual anchoring bypass system as a non-surgical alternative to bariatric and metabolic surgery.
