NCT ID NCT07519915
First seen Apr 26, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study explores whether sacral neuromodulation (a mild electrical stimulation of nerves in the lower back) can improve bowel symptoms like constipation, soiling, and stomach pain in children aged 3 to 18 with gut motility disorders. Researchers will use brain scans and computer models to personalize the treatment. The goal is to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life, not to cure the underlying condition.
