Video Tip: How to attach the Cook Esophageal Band Ligator to the Gastroscope

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video tip sponsored by Braintree demonstrates how to attach the Cooke esophageal varisopein ligator to a gastroscope. The package includes a wheel and pulley system, bander cap, blunt tip needle, and crochet needle. The first step is attaching the pulley system to the gastroscope. The bander cap is then removed and placed directly into the gastroscope through the closed or open valve. The blunt tip needle is used to perforate the membrane, and the crochet needle is passed through the membrane and out the working channel. The bander cap and string are attached to the crochet needle, and the knot end of the string is secured in the groove on the pulley system. The device is ready for banding after tightening the string and adjusting the field of view.
