Summary

This small pilot study tested a home-use device that delivers mild electrical stimulation (called TEA) to help reduce abdominal pain in people with chronic pancreatitis. Twelve participants used the device daily for several weeks. The main goal was to see if the approach was practical and safe, not yet to prove it works. Results will guide future larger studies.
