Summary
The study will compare the use of cold snare, hot snare, cold EMR, and hot EMR for polyp resection. Although previous studies have compared two of the potential resection methods, no previous study has evaluated all four of the resection methods.
Detailed description
The optimal method for removal of polyps 6-9 and 10-15 mm in size is not established. In this study, we propose to evaluate four different treatments for polyps (sized 6mm-15mm). The four treatments are cold snaring without injection, hot snaring without injection, cold EMR, and hot EMR. This study aims to help to establish the optimal resection technique for 6-9 and 10-15 mm polyps.
Conditions
Interventions
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PROCEDURE | Cold Snare | Subjects randomized to Cold Snare Intervention will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using cold snare techniques (no electrocautery, no submucosal injection.) |
| PROCEDURE | Hot Snare | Subjects randomized to Hot Snare Intervention will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using hot snare techniques (with electrocautery, no submucosal injection.) |
| PROCEDURE | Cold EMR | Subjects randomized to Cold EMR will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using cold EMR techniques (no electrocautery, with submucosal injection.) |
| PROCEDURE | Hot EMR | Subjects randomized to Hot EMR will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using hot EMR techniques (with electrocautery, with submucosal injection.) |
