Filter by:Humanitarian Device: Authorized by Federal (U.S.A.) Law for use in treatment of chronic intractable (drug refractory) nausea and vomiting secondary to gastroparesis of diabetic or idiopathic etiology.
This is an analytical validation observational cohort study is designed to provide evidence of: safety and reliability of Body Surface Gastric Mapping using the Gastric Alimetry System (GAS), normal reference values, and correlation of metrics with patient symptoms among healthy adults and patients diagnosed with upper abdominal motility disorders. GAS is intended to record, store, view and process gastric myoelectrical activity. This is a proprietary system consisting of multiple electrodes arranged on an array that is placed precisely over the stomach, a reader to collect the electrode measurements and a smart tablet application to track patient reported symptoms. Participants meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria will continue fasting for 30 minutes after the Gastric Alimetry System has been applied and begun measuring, eat a standard study meal within 10 minutes and remain quietly seated, reclining, for 4 hours as the GAS continues to collect data. The array is removed and the abdomen is examined for evidence of skin effects.
This is a prospective collection of data from adult patients who have had an endoscopic metabolic and bariatric endoscopy procedure (EMBT) for primary or revision surgical procedures for obesity.
The purpose of this study is to develop a clinical registry in patients with Gastric Electrical Stimulation (GES) therapy for gastroparesis to support future gastrointestinal therapies, medical procedures and diagnostics.
Currently, there is limited multi-center data on endoscopic surgery outcomes in western populations. Evaluation of these measurement would help the investigators compare them to conventional treatment modalities within current tertiary facilities; and consequently help the investigators identify appropriate treatment techniques and improve clinical management of patients at Rutgers RWJMS. The purpose of this retrospective registry study is to assess long term data on efficacy, safety and clinical outcome of Endoscopic Surgery within the gastrointestinal tract.
This study aims to characterize how vagus nerve compound action potentials (CNAPs) conduct along the vagus nerve in gastroparetic patients receiving GES therapy using a flexible, non-invasive multielectrode array (MEA).
There is a tremendous clinical need for a noninvasive technique that can assess gastric electrical activity and would be repeatable without any exposure to radiation. Investigators developed a new technique allowing to use noninvasive methods to assess bioelectrical activity in the gastrointestinal system. This has enabled to characterize the normal and pathologic physiology of the stomach through the use of noninvasive magnetogastrogram (MGG) records. Primary hypothesis for this proposal is that analysis of gastric slow wave uncoupling and propagation in multichannel MGG discriminates between normal and pathological gastric electrical activity. Eventually, investigators envision this research leading to new insights for gastrointestinal conditions such as gastroparesis, functional dyspepsia and chronic idiopathic nausea that would inform clinical management of these debilitating diseases.
The objective of this study is to determine if Gastric Electrical Stimulation may influence vagal outflow via vagal afferent fibers that terminate in the Central Nervous System.
Delayed emptying of the gastric tube after esophagectomy is a frequent and durable problem. No treatment is currently available. It can be hypothesized that incomplete relaxation of the pyloric sphincter may be a significant contributing factor. Pneumatic dilatation may therefore be a potentially effective treatment.
