First seen Mar 08, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study looks at how a stomach pacemaker (gastric electrical stimulation) helps people with gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach empties too slowly. Researchers will place a flexible, non-invasive electrode patch on the neck to measure nerve signals from the vagus nerve. The goal is to understand which nerve patterns are linked to better symptom control. About 40 adults with an implanted Enterra device will participate.
