Collection of Electrophysiological Data During Colon Resection

Exero Medical Ltd.5 enrolled

Overview

The study is conducted to record continuous electrophysiological signals from intact and ischemic bowel tissue during colonic resection surgery, in order to train the Exero Medical Leak Detection System classification algorithm on detection of ischemic conditions.

Interventions

Exero Medical Leak Detection SystemDEVICE

the Exero Leak Detection System components used in this study are: * Smart drain - a surgical drain with added sensing electrodes * Transceiver /Recording Unit (TRU) - a wearable placed outside the body on intact skin and is connected to the implanted electrodes. The unit also acts as a wireless connection to the Monitoring Subsystem. * Monitoring Subsystem - a tablet or a computer connected wirelessly to the transceiver providing logging, applying analysis algorithms on the logged signals and providing indication/alerts to the medical staff derived from the signals recorded by the electrodes.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Functionality of signal measurement

Baseline data collected from the intended bowel segment to be resected, prior to tissue manipulation, is compared to the data recorded after the ischemia induced by the resection procedure.

Time frame: 10 minutes

Secondary Outcomes

Occurrence of adverse events

Adverse events both expected and unexpected, related or unrelated to study device or procedure, graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 4.03

Time frame: 10 minutes
