| 摘要 |
GI tract treatment and monitoring devices configured for temporary implantation in the GI tract and non-invasive removal via natural body processes are disclosed. Methods of implantation, treatment and monitoring with disclosed devices are also disclosed. Devices include bio-active fixation that allows removal from the body by natural processes after a time that may be engineered in the fixation elements. In some embodiments, devices are configured to be implanted on GI tract tissue and transmurally migrate into the GI tract to be passed from the body. In other embodiments, devices are configured for placement within the GI tract via a delivery tube such as an NJ/NG tube. Embodiments include stimulation devices for treating conditions such as ileus and sensors for monitoring GI leaks and/or biological or chemical markers for various GI tract conditions. |
