Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Arvind Trindad, an associate professor at Hofstra Zucker School of Medicine, is participating in a virtual hands-on session for a Sophagology course hosted by the ASGE. He is joined by Shifa Umar, an Advanced Industry Fellow at the University of Chicago. They demonstrate two techniques: endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic closure. Dr. Trindad explains that EMR can be done using devices such as the Cooke Duet kit, Boston Scientific device, or the newer SmartBand distributed by Steris Endoscopy. The video focuses on the use of the Cooke Duet kit. Dr. Trindad demonstrates how to prepare and use the kit, including inserting a catheter and deploying a pseudopolyp. He also discusses snare placement, coagulation versus cutting currents, and the limitations of EMR. The video ends with a mention of the upcoming closure procedure.
