Message from PowerSpiral Experts Group
Spiral enteroscopy requires a different technique than standard enteroscopy because it relies on the powered spiral segment to pull the small bowel onto the enteroscope. Olympus has created extensive and detailed educational web content* to support physicians to reliably and safely insert and withdraw the enteroscope and clearly explains nuances in technique and troubleshooting problems. The content includes description of the product, videos of the technique, clinical videos and E-learning programs. These were developed to support the safe and effective use of PowerSpiral and we strongly recommend that you carefully view and read all of the material before beginning clinical cases.
