Surgery speed test: does the direction of the first cut matter?

NCT ID NCT07425977

Summary

This study aims to find out if making the first cut across the esophagus (transverse) is faster than making it lengthwise (longitudinal) during a POEM procedure, a minimally invasive surgery for swallowing disorders. It will involve 140 adults in Colombia who need this surgery. The main goal is to see if the different cut directions change how long it takes to start the procedure, without making it less safe.
