NAVIGATE Clinical Study


Relief may be possible with Enterra® Therapy. 

The NAVIGATE Clinical Study is a prospective randomized controlled trial of chronic nausea, with or without vomiting, in patients with normal gastric emptying using Enterra® Therapy.

The purpose of the study is to determine if Enterra Therapy can decrease nausea and vomiting symptoms and improve the quality of life.

Today, Enterra Therapy is an FDA approved Humanitarian Device for patients with chronic nausea and vomiting due to gastroparesis. It uses gastric electrical stimulation (GES) to gently stimulate the stomach, is customizable and reversible.

Evaluated as part of the NAVIGATE Clinical Study, Enterra Therapy is considered investigational and can only be used by physicians participating in this study.
