The Disposable Rotatable Hemoclip (Hemo-Clamp) by Alton Medical is an essential endoscopic device for reliable hemostasis and closure of mucosal or submucosal defects. It rotates 360°, can be reopened before release, and its head opens up to 90°, ensuring accurate placement in difficult anatomical sites. The released part (12–17 mm) allows secure grasping of vessels, mucosal defects, or small polyps. For ease of use, the clips are equipped with color coding according to jaw opening size, helping physicians quickly identify the right model during procedures.
