Recording stomach and gut signals with skin sensors
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses small sensors placed on your belly to record electrical signals from your stomach and intestines. It may help doctors better understand conditions like Crohn's disease and other digestive issues without using needles or inside-the-body tests.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have not eaten for at least 12 hours before the test
- You do not have a pacemaker
- You are not allergic to soy, dairy, peanuts, wheat, or nuts
- You have not had any surgery on your stomach or intestines

This study checks whether adding an extra, cross-body “transmural” evaluation (looking at inflammation throughout the bowel) improves care for adults with Crohn’s who are starting or receiving biologic (biotherapy) treatment. It uses close follow-up with stool calprotectin (a marker of gut inflammation) to see if this approach helps control inflammation.
This study tests the SIMBA capsule to learn how gut bacteria (dysbiosis) relate to digestive conditions. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and how the capsule can be used safely.
This study uses a tiny capsule to collect samples from your small intestine to learn about gut bacteria in people with IBS or other functional gut disorders. It could help researchers understand what causes digestive symptoms.
This study collects and stores digestive (bowel) tissue to better understand how gut bacteria may affect diseases like ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. It may help researchers find future ways to improve care for people with these conditions.
This study tests a new wireless capsule that you swallow, like a pill, to measure temperature inside your digestive tract. It is for healthy volunteers to see if the device is safe and works well.
This study tests whether combining a specific diet with biologic medicines can reduce active inflammation and symptoms of Crohn’s disease. It may help people who still have active disease in the bowel despite prior care.
