FOR

SPYGLASS DIGITAL CONTROLLER

AUTOLITH TOUCH EHL GENERATOR

VETERANS HEATH ADMINISTRATION

14 APRIL 2020

*ALL ITEMS HEREIN THAT MENTION BRAND NAME PRODUCTS MAY BE SUBSTITUTED FOR A LIKE OR SIMILAR ITEM*

1. INTRODUCTION

This solicitation is to provide the Veterans Health Administration, Endoscopy Department with one (1) SpyGlass DS Digital Controller and one (1) Autolith Touch Electrohydrolithotripsy (EHL) Generator. The SpyGlass Digital Controller is needed to allow physicians to perform Cholangioscopy during Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedures. The Autolith Touch EHL Generator is needed to be used in conjuction with SpyGlass to assist in lithotripsy of large ductal stones.

2. BACKGROUND

ERCP has been the standard technique for nonsurgical diagnosis and management of pancreaticobiliary disease over the past several decades. This method relies on indirect visualization, and ERCP diagnosis of pathologic lesions via brush cytology and/or intraductal biopsy has poor sensitivity and specificity. SpyGlass offers a valuable adjunct to ERCP for the visualization, diagnostic sampling, and treatment biliary and pancreatic diseases. It should be considered for the first-line management of strictures and difficult stone disease prior to major surgery, and for use in presurgical planning. Biliary Stones: During ERCP, it is not uncommon to find complicated biliary stones that are failed to be removed during mechanical lithotripsy. This is due to impacted stones, or they are wider than the diameter of the distal common bile duct. This may require more invasive removal techniques. However, with the SpyGlass system, obstructing biliary duct stones are much more easily cleared because the SpyGlass probe can allow directed Electrohydrolithotripsy to be performed which can fragment and remove the stones in a single procedure- all done endoscopically versus invasive surgical measures. Diagnosing and Mapping Biliary Strictures: In addition to stone lithotripsy, SpyGlass can overcome suboptimal visualization of biliary and pancreatic duct strictures. It can provide more accurate diagnostic sampling (where normal ERCP had been unable to detect abnormalities) for malignant strictures. Having the ability to accurately diagnose, target the proper treatment option, and potentially avoid unnecessary procedures through use of the SpyGlass system is a clinical advantage. Pancreatoscopy: SpyGlass can facilitate successful pancreatoscopy to examine more advanced pancreatic disease or lesions that cannot be seen on an endoscopic ultrasound.

The Endoscopy Department does not currently have the ability to perform SpyGlass Cholangioscopy/Pancreatoscopy and/or lithotripsy procedures. The Spyglass DS Digital Controller and Autolith Touch EHL Generator will allow the VA Hospital to perform these cases where they otherwise would have had to transfer the patient to another facility to access this technology. This will allow the VA to treat these patients in house without transfer and potentially reduce the number of procedures the patient endures.
