What has NICE said?

There is not enough evidence to be sure about how well electrical stimulation of the lower oesophageal sphincter for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease works or how safe it is. For this reason, it should only be done as part of a research study.

What does this mean for me?

Your health professional can only offer you this procedure as part of a research study. Details of your procedure will be collected.
