Tracking a promising therapy for stomach paralysis
NCT ID NCT05047289
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study creates a registry of people with gastroparesis—a condition where the stomach empties too slowly, causing nausea, vomiting, and pain—who have received a gastric electrical stimulation (GES) device. The goal is to collect long-term data to help researchers understand how GES works and to support the development of better treatments. Participants are those who have already had the device implanted for their symptoms.

- Active substance
- gastric electrical stimulation device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this registry could provide valuable data to improve treatments and diagnostics for gastroparesis.

- This is an observational registry, not a treatment trial, so it will not directly test whether GES works. Results depend on the quality and completeness of the data collected.
