New Insights in Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection and GI Bleeding Prevention
Endoscopic innovations are transforming gastrointestinal care. In this episode, we examine new evidence showing that prophylactic clip closure after endoscopic submucosal dissection reduces bleeding risk by nearly 70%. We also explore real-world recovery tracking with smartwatch data, the latest performance of topical hemostatic agents, and intriguing case reports that highlight both the progress and challenges in minimally invasive GI therapy.
