First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two procedures—G-POEM and a gastric electrical stimulator—for people with severe gastroparesis (stomach paralysis) that hasn't improved with medication. Forty adults will be randomly assigned to one of two groups to compare safety and symptom relief. The goal is to see if these treatments can improve stomach emptying and quality of life.
