Study of Magnet System for Small Intestine Connections
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses a special magnet system to connect different parts of the small intestine without additional surgeries. It tests how well the magnets help create these connections in people who need this procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
