Endoscopic staplers are precision surgical instruments used in minimally invasive surgeries that can perform various functions such as suturing and cutting. Endoscopic gia stapler are also called gastrointestinal staplers and are mainly used in gastrointestinal surgeries. For example, after removing part of the intestine, it is necessary to sew the tissues together and separate them at the same time, which is very useful for creating seamless connections between intestinal segments.
1. This stapler is designed for endoscopic techniques, and the doctor inserts it through a small incision instead of a large one. This helps to reduce recovery time and complications.
2. Disposable or reusable: Depending on the specific model and manufacturer, the stapler can be disposable or reusable.
3. Achieve precise anastomosis with minimal human intervention.
4. Simplify the surgical process by combining two functions (suturing and cutting) into one instrument.
5. Reduce the size of the required incision, which usually speeds up recovery and reduces postoperative pain.
Gastric bypass surgery is a procedure that reduces the size of the stomach and is a common surgical procedure.
Gastric bypass surgery can be used to change the anatomy of the gastrointestinal tract to achieve a better effect of reducing the size of the stomach, which can significantly reduce food intake, change the emptying and absorption process of food, change the arrangement of the intestines, and can directly reduce the absorption of various nutrients in the intestines. It can help lose weight and is generally used for people with large appetites or obesity.
Sterilization: Make sure the endoscopic GIA stapler has been sterilized. Store it in a protective box until it is needed for surgery.
Patient Positioning: The patient is anesthetized and positioned on the operating table while the doctor and surgical team prepare for laparoscopic surgery.
Laparoscopic Access:
First, small incisions (ports) are made in the abdomen. These are used to insert a laparoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera) and other surgical instruments.
Creating the stomach pouch:
The endoscopic GIA stapler is then inserted through one of the ports. The surgeon uses the stapler to divide the stomach into a small upper pouch and the remaining large stomach.
Stapling and cutting: The stapler applies a double row of staples to the stomach tissue to secure the separated parts, and then cuts the tissue in the middle. This creates the small upper pouch for the new stomach.
Reconnecting the small intestine:
Astomosis: The endoscopic GIA stapler can be used again to connect the small intestine to the new stomach pouch. The stapler ensures a strong connection between the two parts, forming an anastomosis.
Finally, after the operation, it is necessary to check again whether the cleaning is done quickly and no foreign objects are left in the abdominal cavity.
While waiting for the patient to wake up from anesthesia and begin to recover, the operation needs to be monitored at all times. Compared with traditional open surgery, this minimally invasive method reduces the patient's recovery time and relieves the patient's pain. As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood, and a handy tool plays an important role in the operation.
