Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Group B (multiple bite forceps)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants in group B will have their biopsies during endoscopy retrieved with the multiple bite forceps. Meaning, they will have six consecutive biopsies taken with each pass through the endoscope.
Group II: Group A (double bite forceps)Active Control1 Intervention
Participants in group A will proceed to have their biopsies during endoscopy taken with the conventional double bite forceps. Meaning, they will have two biopsies taken each time the forcep is passed through the endoscope. To obtain a total of six biopsies, the forceps will be passed through the endoscope a total of three times.
