First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing a device called the AlgometRx Nociometer to see if it can measure inflammation in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The device checks how different nerve fibers respond, which may give doctors a clearer picture of disease activity. Researchers hope this leads to more personalized treatment for kids with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
