Mechanisms of Action for the Enterra Medical Gastric Electrical Stimulator
Background: Gastric electrical stimulation applied by a surgically implanted device effectively alleviates upper gastrointestinal symptoms in the majority of individuals with medically refractory gastroparesis. Despite its efficacy, the mechanisms of action have been minimally explored in previous studies, and it is unknown why some individuals experience limited symptom-lowering effects. Aim: …
