Is the PAS-Port system associated with significant patient benefits compared with hand-sewn anastomoses? Will the device be able to replace hand-sewn sutures with automated proximal and distal anastomoses systems? Will the technique improve patient outcomes by shortening surgery times and hospital stays and reducing complications associated with aortic clamping?

Does the BÂRRX Medical’s Ablation System make a favorable impact on the most dangerous grade of Barrett’s esophagus? Have studies validated the performance and efficacy of the HALO ablation systems for treating Barrett’s esophagus? What are the optimal treatment parameters for treating HGD in patients who otherwise would be subjected to surgical esophagectomy?
