In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of the Flexagon 25mm SFM system plus OTOLoc when used to create a side-to-side Ileo-colic, Colo-colonic and side-to-side or end-to-side colorectal anastomoses in participants undergoing colon surgery. This will be evaluated via a composite safety/effectiveness endpoint of patient success defined as successful creation of the target anastomosis without placement procedure, device or target anastomosis related reoperation through 30 days.
