Tested a device to treat Crohn’s after bowel surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at using a new neurotechnology-based approach (a technology that talks to the nervous system) for people with Crohn’s disease after they’ve had bowel surgery. It’s meant for patients whose new surgical connection (an anastomosis) looks normal on scope and is reachable by colonoscopy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re 18 years or older and have Crohn’s disease
- You recently had bowel surgery that created a new internal connection that can be reached by standard colonoscopy
- At surgery, the remaining bowel looks normal to the eye (macroscopic normality) after the resection
- Your colonoscopy can safely access the surgical connection (the anastomosis)
- You’re not currently pregnant or breastfeeding

This study looks at treatments for a new (de novo) narrow area in the bowel from Crohn’s disease. It aims to see which treatment works better at relieving blockage-type symptoms for the safest, most effective option.
This study tests a device that sends mild electrical pulses to the vagus nerve in the abdomen to treat rheumatoid arthritis. It is for people whose arthritis has not improved after trying multiple medications.
This study tests whether a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve (a major nerve in your neck) can affect brain function in people whose IBD is in remission. Researchers want to understand if this stimulation might help reduce inflammation or improve symptoms in the future.
This study looks at what happens to your immune system and stomach/gut function after getting a vagus nerve stimulator (VNS) for the first time for epilepsy. It may help doctors understand whether the device benefits more than seizures.
This study tests whether a special vagal nerve stimulation device can help reduce pain after transanal surgery. It may be an option for people having scheduled anal or rectal procedures without abdominal incisions.
This trial tests a new medical device called BOOM-IBD2 that uses gentle nerve stimulation to treat ulcerative colitis. It's for people who have not had UC surgery and do not have certain infections or other implanted devices.
