Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is conducted to compare performance characteristics of staple lines resecting the stomach in excised human gastric tissue with existing Echelon Flex Powered Plus GST System (Ethicon, size: 60mm, "Echelon") stapler and the Titan SGS (Standard Bariatrics, "Titan").

The Study is a single center clinical trial, randomized (1:1, Arm A - Ethicon Echelon 60 application, Arm B - Standard Bariatrics Titan SGS application) which utilizes the excised stomach tissue from up to 75 adults undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). This study will be conducted in the USA.
