Magnetic device study for stomach and bowel blockages
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new magnetic device that creates a connection between parts of your stomach or small intestine without needing stitches, for people with certain blockages or digestive issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a new magnetic device system to treat gastric outlet obstruction—a blockage that prevents food from leaving your stomach. Instead of traditional surgery, the device uses magnetic compression to create a new passage for food to pass through.
This trial compares two surgical procedures to relieve stomach blockage caused by advanced stomach cancer that cannot be removed. The goal is to find which method better helps patients eat and improves quality of life.
This trial is testing a new way to connect parts of the large or small intestine using magnets instead of staples or stitches. It may help people who need certain types of colon or rectal surgery recover with less pain and fewer complications.
This study tests a new way to connect your stomach to your small intestine during gastric surgery using a special magnetic device. It may help people who need this type of surgery, but you must meet certain health and location requirements.
This study tracks the safety and effectiveness of a new magnetic system that creates connections between parts of the small intestine to help treat obesity or other conditions. It may help you if you need this type of surgery and want to learn more about how well the devices work in real life.
This trial tests a new magnet device to connect sections of the colon after surgery. It may be an option for people who need part of their colon removed and are otherwise in good health.
