A Randomized Trial Comparing the Effectiveness of Polyp Resection Treatments (Hot Snare vs Cold Snare vs Hot EMR vs Cold EMR)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cold Snare, Hot Snare, and 2 other interventions for Colon Cancer and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 238 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The study will compare the use of cold snare, hot snare, cold EMR, and hot EMR for polyp resection. Although previous studies have compared two of the potential resection methods, no previous study has evaluated all four of the resection methods.

Interventions
Subjects randomized to Cold Snare Intervention will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using cold snare techniques (no electrocautery, no submucosal injection.)
Subjects randomized to Hot Snare Intervention will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using hot snare techniques (with electrocautery, no submucosal injection.)
Subjects randomized to Cold EMR will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using cold EMR techniques (no electrocautery, with submucosal injection.)
Subjects randomized to Hot EMR will have any polyps sized 6mm to 15mm removed using hot EMR techniques (with electrocautery, with submucosal injection.)
