Innovative Therapy for Severe GERD
EndoStim therapy normalizes esophageal function through electrical stimulation
EndoStim Features:
- Enhanced patient quality of life
- Addresses pathophysiology of GERD
- Typically eliminates need for long-term acid suppressive medication
- Safe, minimally-invasive laparoscopic procedure
- Easily reversible, if necessary
- Wirelessly customized to patients' changing lifestyle needs and preferences
- No significant alteration in patients' anatomy or mechanical constraints on the esophagus
The EndoStim system offers a solution for severe GERD patients. EndoStim's technology delivers tiny electrical pulses from an Implantable Pulse Generator (IPG) through a bipolar lead implanted in the patient’s lower esophageal sphincter (LES), stimulating the LES muscle and restoring the barrier between the stomach and the esophagus.
