Registry study for a new stomach pacemaker
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study records outcomes for people who need a new implanted stomach electrical stimulation device for severe stomach emptying problems (gastroparesis) that haven’t improved with usual treatments. It may help doctors learn which patients benefit most and how to manage the device over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are planning to get a newly implanted stomach electrical stimulation device
- You have severe gastroparesis that hasn’t responded to standard care
- You can move around on your own and are not bed-ridden or living in a nursing facility
- If you can become pregnant, you are not currently pregnant
- You can give your own informed consent (or confirm you can do so)

This study follows people with drug-refractory gastroparesis (stomach paralysis symptoms that don’t improve with usual medicines) to better understand how symptoms and nutrition change over time. Your information may help researchers understand patterns that could improve care.
This study tests a new way to program the Enterra stomach pacemaker so it cycles at night, aiming to improve gastroparesis symptoms. It's for people who already have the device and have stable symptoms.
This study tests whether a device that sends gentle electrical pulses to the stomach, already implanted for at least 8 weeks, can reduce daily stomach pain in people with gastroparesis. It may help if you have had chronic stomach pain for more than 2 months.
This study uses a non-invasive stomach-mapping test (BSGM) to see if a G-POEM procedure (a treatment for gastroparesis) works well. It may help doctors better understand how the stomach empties after the procedure.
This study collects small tissue samples from the stomach and upper small intestine while you’re already having certain kinds of GI (digestive) or abdominal surgery. It aims to learn what causes stomach or bowel movement problems in some patients, which could guide future diagnosis and care.
This study tests whether placing a small, implanted device that sends gentle electrical pulses to the stomach can improve symptoms of severe gastroparesis—a condition where the stomach empties too slowly. It's for people whose symptoms haven't been controlled with other treatments and are significantly affecting their daily life.
