The Apollo ESG NXT System is intended to be used by trained gastroenterologists or surgeons that perform bariatric procedures to facilitate weight loss by reducing stomach volume through endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty in adult patients with obesity with BMI between 30-50 kg/m2 who have not been able to lose weight, or maintain weight loss, through more conservative measures. The Apollo REVISE NXT System is intended to be used by trained gastroenterologists or surgeons that perform bariatric procedures to facilitate weight loss in adult patients with between 30-50 kg/m2 by enabling transoral outlet reduction as a revision to a previous bariatric procedure.

These devices are used to perform gastric remodelling through the placement of anchor-sutures and locking cinch device. The Apollo ESG NXT system is for intended for endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) while the Apollo REVISE NXT device is intended for transoral outlet reduction, as a revision to a previous bariatric procedure. The two device systems differ in terms of the number of anchor-sutures and cinches needed to perform ESG and TORe procedures. Both systems are comprised of a Needle Driver Assembly and Anchor Exchange Device, and accessories such as the Tissue Helix, Suture Cinch and Suture-Anchor Assembly devices. All devices are sterile packaged and designed for single use and are manufactured from various thermoplastic, silicone, stainless steel and other medical grade materials. The Apollo ESG NXT and Apollo REVISE NXT needle driver assembies are designed to be compatible with single channel endoscopes. The endcap assembly of the needle driver is mounted onto the endoscope using polyester medical tape. The external catheter sheath has two working channels through which the Anchor Exchange and other accessories can operate, independent of the endoscope channel. The needle driver assembly also incorporates a pull string feature that, when pulled, allows the physician to further control the retroflexion capabilities of the endoscope. The handle of the Needle Driver Assembly is squeezed to actuate the needle body and exchange the proprietary Suture-Anchor Assembly with the Anchor Exchange to perform stitching operations. A previously cleared Tissue Helix is provided with Apollo ESG NXT while the NXT Tissue Helix Pro is provided with Apollo REVISE NXT. Both instruments are used for manipulating tissue into the suturing window of the needle driver assembly. These devices also include a matching number of anchor-sutures and cinches to perform the gastroplasty or revision procedure. The NXT Tissue Helix Pro is used to acquire tissue by rotating the device's handle to to gather tissue onto the exposed exposed helix coil. The acquired tissue is then pulled into proximity of the needle body to complete the stitching operation. Tissue is released by rotating the handle in the opposite direction.

The OverStitch NXT Endoscopic Suturing System is intended for endoscopic placement of suture(s) and approximation of soft tissue.

The OverStitch NXT Endoscopic Suturing System (ESS) and accessories are intended for endoscopic placement of sutures and approximation of soft tissue within the gastrointestinal tract utilizing a single-channel endoscope. The system is comprised of the Needle Driver Assembly and Anchor Exchange Device (collectively referred to as ESS), and accessories such as the Tissue Helix or NXT Tissue Helix Pro, Suture Cinch and Suture-Anchor Assembly devices. All devices are sterile packaged and designed for single use and are manufactured from various thermoplastic, silicone, stainless steel and other medical grade materials. The OverStitch NXT ESS is designed for compatibility with single channel endoscopes. The ESS is mounted onto the endoscope using polyester medical tape for the endcap assembly. The external catheter sheath has two working channels through which the Anchor Exchange and OverStitch accessories can operate, independent of the endoscope channel. The handle of the Needle Driver Assembly is squeezed to actuate the needle body and exchange the proprietary Suture-Anchor Assembly with the Anchor Exchange to perform stitching operations.
