Colorectal patient pathway

Medtronic takes a holistic approach to working across the colorectal healthcare continuum

With you throughout the patient journey

To optimize your colorectal patient pathway you need to think about every step of the journey. From diagnosis through to surgical intervention and follow-up treatments, we can support you with our portfolio of innovative products and solutions.

Whether you want to reduce your patients’ length of stay, surgical complications or improve their quality of life, we can partner with you to help achieve better colorectal care outcomes.

Diagnosis

Detect earlier for better outcomes

Early diagnosis is a key factor in better final outcomes. That’s why we’re constantly developing new technologies and solutions to help detect chronic gastrointestinal diseases and cancers earlier.

Our technologies include:

Capsule endoscopy for comprehensive, accurate visualisation.¹
Motility testing solutions provide useful information to support diagnosis of conditions like dysphagia, achalasia, and hiatal hernia.^2-4
Support consistent and predictable acquisition of tissue samples with intact cellular architecture.^5-9
Innovative reflux testing solutions that allow you to better understand acid reflux symptoms, assess PPI efficacy and develop the best care plans for patients with GERD.^10,11

Surgical Intervention

Empowering colorectal surgeons

We’re continuously innovating to ensure our portfolio meets surgeons’ needs and promotes quicker colorectal patient recovery.

Our portfolio includes tools to meet all surgical needs including access, mobilization & dissection, division, anastomosis and closure:

Electrosurgical instruments
Hernia repair
Surgical stapling
Trocars & access instruments
Vessel sealing & ultrasonic dissection
Wound closure
