摘要:
The present specification discloses devices and methodologies for the treatment of GERD. Individuals with GERD may be treated by implanting a stimulation device within the patient's lower esophageal sphincter and applying electrical stimulation to the patient's lower esophageal sphincter, in accordance with certain predefined protocols. The presently disclosed devices have a simplified design because they do not require sensing systems capable of sensing when a person is engaged in a wet swallow and have improved energy storage requirements.
摘要(中):
本说明书公开了用于治疗GERD的装置和方法。 具有GERD的个体可以通过在患者的下食管括约肌内植入刺激装置并且根据某些预定义的方案对患者的下食管括约肌施加电刺激来治疗。 目前公开的设备具有简化的设计,因为它们不需要能够感测人何时从事湿式吞咽并具有改进的能量存储要求的感测系统。
