Further study details as provided by Covidien:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The primary measures of performance and safety will be the proportion of patients with an uneventful creation of a functional staple line and the 30 day cumulative incidence of adverse events respectively. [ Time Frame: intra-operative ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Estimations of the incidence of intra-operative bleeding requiring intervention, length of stay, and the incidence of serosal tearing along the staple line will be secondary objectives. [ Time Frame: intra-operative and 1 month ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
