Sometimes, the most memorable introduction to a medical device is simply placing it in a physician’s hands.
One of the most interesting parts of attending ACG is watching physicians experience our Freeman Pancreatic Flexi Stents for the first time.
Some have heard about them through colleagues, while others are discovering them for the first time. Regardless, it’s always interesting to see their reactions as they experience the material and flexibility firsthand.
We’ve also enjoyed conversations with pediatric gastroenterologists, who bring valuable perspectives on device considerations when working with smaller, more delicate anatomy.
Why Does Flexibility Matter?
The anatomy of the pancreatic duct presents unique considerations when selecting a stent. Material composition, flexibility, and the ability to maintain an open lumen are all important characteristics to consider.
The Freeman Pancreatic Flexi Stents offer a flexible design, a characteristic that continues to generate interest and discussion among physicians.
What makes these interactions so rewarding is that the Freeman Pancreatic Flexi Stents are not new to Hobbs Medical. They have an established history, yet continue to spark curiosity and conversation among physicians discovering their characteristics.
ACG 2026 reminded us that innovation doesn’t always have to be new to make a lasting impression. Sometimes, you simply have to experience the design for yourself.
