The grant launches a research and development initiative to adapt ColoWrap’s existing antilooping colonoscopy compression device to a broader patient population.

ColoWrap is a single-use, noninvasive medical device designed to prevent looping during colonoscopy. Looping occurs in up to 90 percent of procedures and is the primary cause of patient pain, complications and failed exams, the release said.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
