TL;DR: High-frequency/low-energy gastric electrical stimulation significantly decreased vomiting frequency and gastrointestinal symptoms and improved quality of life in patients with severe gastroparesis.
Patent
Implantable medical device affixed internally within the gastrointestinal tract
John M. Swoyer,Warren Starkebaum +1 more
TL;DR: A GI tract stimulator and/or monitor IMD comprising a housing enclosing electrical stimulation and monitoring circuitry and a power source and an elongated flexible member extending from the housing to an active fixation mechanism adapted to be fixed into the GI tract wall is disclosed in this article.
Patent
Implantable bifurcated gastrointestinal lead with active fixation
TL;DR: Bifurcated, active fixation, gastrointestinal leads adapted to be implanted within the body at a site of the GI tract to conduct electrical stimulation and electrical signals between the gastrointestinal stimulator and the site are disclosed.
Patent
Gastroelectric stimulation for influencing pancreatic secretions
Benoit Marchal,Warren Starkebaum +1 more
TL;DR: A gastroelectric stimulator comprises a neurostimulator for producing a stimulation signal, at least one electrical lead, and at least two electrical contacts as discussed by the authors, which is adapted to influence pancreatic secretions.
