OTSC® recommended as monotherapy in first-line bleeding management

We’re excited to announce important news in endoscopic bleeding management. The new ESGE guideline on bleeding management¹ has been published and it marks a significant moment for evidence-based endoscopic care:

OTSC® is now recommended as monotherapy in first-line bleeding management.

Here’s what makes this update particularly noteworthy:

• Exclusive recognition of OTSC® data among cap-based clips
• The recommendation is built on a strong foundation of RCT evidence by Schmidt et al., Jensen et al., Maier et al., Chan et al., Lau et al. and Soriani et al. – all based exclusively on OTSC® technology
• The guideline acknowledges the cost-effectiveness of OTSC®, particularly in first-line use

A big congratulations to Prof. Gralnek, his co-authors, and the entire ESGE team on this important update.

One point close to our hearts: the guideline’s emphasis on training as the foundation of safe and effective application. It’s something we’ve been committed to from day one and we are genuinely delighted to see it find its place in a landmark guideline like this.

Take the next step towards guideline-compliant practice: book a training and make sure your team has the skills and confidence to apply OTSC® safely from day one. Get in touch with us to schedule your training!
