The cold snare is a surgical instrument that has been specifically designed to optimize cold resection and has shown significantly higher complete resection rates over standard oval snares, and offers more control and placement for a precise, clean cut. It enables a clean cut with a thin wire design (0.012”/0.30mm) while maintaining its shape and stiffness. It features a shield shape that maximizes its width for optimal control and placement, aiding in polyp resection with a 9mm mini snare size that reduces the risk of creating large defects. The snare offers a stiff catheter that decreases buckling while aiding in placement. It reduces polyp fly away making it possible to collect specimens for pathology.
