This study will evaluate male and female patients at least 18 years of age, with gastroparesis, who will or have already undergone the implantation of a GES device

The study will be conducted at one center and approximately 1,000 subjects will be enrolled.

The purpose of this research study is to create a clinical registry of adults with gastroparesis who receive gastric electrical stimulation (GES) therapy. A registry is a way to collect and organize health information over time.

Participants will be adults who are planning to have a GES device implanted or who have already had one implanted. People who are having the device implanted will be enrolled before the implantation and may have a baseline visit. Visit procedures will depend on the person’s clinical condition at the time, based on the study doctor’s judgment. This study is being done at 1 center and plans to enroll about 1,000 people.
