Overview

Detect motility disorders

Endoflip™ 300 provides real-time measurements of the pressure and dimensions of the esophagus during endoscopic evaluation and surgical procedures.1 Endoflip™ 300 is a well-tolerated, convenient way to assess esophageal motility that can inform the need to refer patents to high-resolution manometry.2,3 During surgical procedures Endoflip™ 300 gives real-time feedback that can reduce negative outcomes of procedures like Nissen fundoplication, Heller myotomy, and per-oral endoscopic myotomies.4–6

Risk information*:
Arrhythmia, Anaphylaxis, Aspiration/inhalation, Bacterial infection, Bleeding/hemorrhage, Death (for Esoflip procedures only), Delay to treatment/therapy, Dental trauma, Dysphagia, Gastrointestinal regurgitation (for Esoflip procedures only), Heartburn/indigestion (for Esoflip procedures only), Hypersensitivity/allergic reaction, Laceration of the esophagus, Misdiagnosis/misclassification, Pain, Perforation of the esophagu,s Thermal burn, Vasovagal response

1/2

Up to 50% of endoscopies for predominant esophageal reflux symptoms are negative.7​

1/3

One in three patients referred with ongoing symptoms while using PPIs doesn’t have GERD.8​

No pills

PPI use has been associated with osteoporosis and other risks.9

You need an objective means to help you diagnose GERD and motility disorders​

There are many types of motility disorders, and pinpointing the underlying cause of the patients symptoms can be challenging.10​

Endoflip™ 300 can provide information to aid in therapeutic decision making.11

How does Flip™ technology work?

Endoflip™ technology uses high-resolution impedance planimetry to measure luminal geometry and pressure during volume-controlled distension. It helps you assess the mechanical properties of the esophageal wall and opening dynamics of the gastroesophageal junction in various esophageal diseases.​

Endoflip™ 300 impedance planimetry system

Endoflip™ 300 uses a balloon catheter to display diameter estimates of the measurement area in real-time. It can measure and display diameter estimates at up to 16 points within the balloon. 

Endoflip™ 300 helps identify motility disorders by providing real-time pressure and dimension measurements in the esophagus, pylorus, and anal sphincters. 

Endoflip™ 300 provides real-time assessment of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) myotomy during Heller myotomy or per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) procedures.12

Endoflip™ Catheter w/pressure measurement

The Endoflip™ EF-322N and EF-325N measurement catheters are designed for use with the Endoflip™ impedance planimetry system. They have integrated pressure sensors for balloon pressure measurement.

Esoflip™ dilation catheter

The Esoflip™ ES-310 and ES-320 balloon catheters are indicated for use to dilate esophageal strictures due to esophageal surgery, primary gastroesophageal reflux, or radiation therapy.

The Esoflip™ ES-330 balloon catheter is used in a clinical setting to dilate the gastroesophageal junction (EGJ) to treat achalasia.
