20 MHz Selectable Depth Doppler System
A sound breakthrough in the management of UGI bleeding.
The VTI 20 MHz Selectable Depth Doppler System is a sound breakthrough in the endoscopic treatment of acute peptic ulcer hemorrhage. By incorporating a probe that can be passed down a 2.8mm endoscope channel, this system identifies blood flow in an ulcer base prior to treatment as well as allowing for evaluation of persistent blood flow after hemostatic treatment.
Clinical studies (including RCTs) have shown that Doppler guided endoscopic hemostasis of patients with severe non-variceal upper GI hemorrhage significantly reduced 30-day rates of rebleeding compared with standard, visually guided hemostasis. In addition, cost analysis studies have shown that Doppler guided treatment is more effective and less costly than conventional care.
