Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Participants eligible for inclusion in this Trial must meet all of the following criteria: 1. Voluntary written informed consent of the participant or their legally authorized representative has been obtained prior to any screening procedures 2. Use of highly effective methods of birth control; defined as those that, alone or in combination, result in low failure rate (i.e., less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly; such as implants, injectables, combined oral contraceptives, some IUDs, true sexual abstinence (i.e. refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated with the Trial treatment(s)) or commitment to a vasectomised partner. 3. Between 18 and 65 years old 4. Inability to belch, which is bothersome enough to consider treatment\*, present for at least 6 months prior to inclusion, and in fulfillment of both categories a and b below:, 1. presence of associated gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal bloating and discomfort/nausea, flatulence, gurgling noises from the chest or lower neck. 2. Absence of other pharyngeal and esophageal pathologies, determined on the basis of history taking and diagnostic tests. 5. Typical findings on high resolution impedance manometry with belch provocation test (10). These typical findings include: No relaxation upon gastroesophageal gas reflux, no air clearance via the UES but instead an increased air presence time include air entrapment and oscillations. * Bothersome = severe enough to impact on usual activities, according to the Rome IV diagnostic criteria (11, 12). Participants eligible for this Trial must not meet any of the following criteria: 1. Participant has a history of surgery in the upper GI tract, that might interfere with the belch reflex (such as anti-reflux surgery) 2. Any disorder, which in the Investigator's opinion might jeopardise the participant's safety or compliance with the protocol 3. Any prior or concomitant treatment(s) that might jeopardise the participant's safety or that would compromise the integrity of the Trial, to be decided at the discretion of the investigator. 4. Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) and not using an adequate, highly effective contraceptive 5. Participation in another interventional Trial with an investigational medicinal product (IMP) or device 6. \>65 years old; \< 18 years of age 7.
