First seen Mar 13, 2026 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study looks at how a device that electrically stimulates the stomach (gastric electrical stimulation) affects the vagus nerve and heart rate in people with gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach empties slowly. Researchers will measure heart signals and hormone levels when the device is on and off. The goal is to understand the body's response, not to test a new treatment.
