Study Summary

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the clinical safety, durability, and weight loss outcomes of the hybrid argon plasma coagulation + endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (HAPC-ESG) procedure when compared to traditional endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) alone. ESG was proven to be feasible in human subjects in 2013 and since then has become the most commonly performed endoscopic bariatric remodeling procedure. However, this procedure may be enhanced with the addition of the hybrid argon plasma coagulation (HAPC) technique, leading to enhanced weight loss, durability, and metabolic benefits. Argon plasma coagulation (APC) is a method of non-contact thermal hemostasis initially created to assist in inducing hemostasis utilizing a high-frequency current to the targeted area. This is a validation study of a pilot randomized control trial which will evaluate the safety, durability, and effects on weight loss of the combined HAPC-ESG approach when compared to traditional ESG alone.
