Exero Medical, a medical technology company that focuses on monitoring patients after surgery, has finished enrolling patients in its key clinical trial in the United States. The study is meant to check how safe and effective their xBar system is. This system is designed to find early signs of anastomotic leaks, which are serious issues that can happen after colorectal surgery. So far, 222 patients have joined the trial at 12 top hospitals in the U.S. and Israel.

Dr. Erez Shor, the CEO of Exero Medical, said that reaching full patient enrollment is a big step toward giving surgeons and patients a reliable tool that can greatly improve treatment results. He thanked the patients, researchers, and medical staff for their hard work and teamwork, which has been essential in moving this important research forward.
The xBar system is a new type of technology that gives continuous, real-time monitoring of the gastrointestinal tract after surgery. It gathers electrophysiological signals directly from the area where surgery was done, providing doctors with important information about how tissues are healing. The system uses built-in artificial intelligence to analyze this data, helping detect early signs of tissue stress or damage. This allows doctors to make better decisions and take action before problems get worse.

Dr. Mehraneh Dorna Jafari, an Associate Professor of Surgery at Weill Cornell Medicine, pointed out that anastomotic leaks are one of the most dangerous complications after colorectal surgeries. These leaks can result in longer hospital stays, the need for more surgeries, and even higher chances of death. She stressed the importance of catching these issues early, saying that the xBar system could help doctors take action quickly and prevent emergency situations by guiding timely and focused reoperations when needed.
This clinical trial marks a significant achievement for Exero Medical as the company continues to develop new and life-saving tools for use in operating rooms and hospitals around the world.
