US control trial: diabetic gastroparesis1
This trial examined the safety and efficacy of Enterra Therapy in the treatment of chronic, intractable (drug-refractory) nausea and vomiting secondary to gastroparesis of diabetic etiology.
Clinical evidence
Designed to deliver durable relief from nausea & vomiting
A number of key clinical studies involving diabetic and idiopathic gastroparesis patients receiving Enterra® Therapy resulted in significant nausea and vomiting symptom improvements.
US control trial: idiopathic gastroparesis2
This trial examined the safety and efficacy of Enterra Therapy in the treatment of chronic, intractable (drug-refractory) nausea and vomiting secondary to gastroparesis of idiopathic etiology.
French ministry of health-sponsored randomized control trial3
This independent study conducted by the French Ministry of Health examined efficacy of Enterra Therapy in the treatment of chronic, intractable nausea and vomiting, with or without gastroparesis.
Long-term 10-year outcomes study4
This study examined the long-term (>10 years) safety and efficacy of Enterra Therapy in patients with intractable nausea and vomiting.
Additional clinical studies
Surgical treatment for refractory gastroparesis: stimulator, pyloric surgery, or both?

AGA best practices review (2021)
“Enterra Therapy does improve refractory nausea and vomiting in some patients with gastroparesis and may improve glycemic control, nutritional status, and quality of life, while reducing hospitalizations and medication use.”5
ACG guidelines (2022)
“Gastric Electric Stimulation (GES) may be considered for control of GP symptoms as a Humanitarian Use Device (HUD).”6
