Laparoscopic gastric electrical stimulation

Laparoscopic gastrostimulation is to embed two electrodes under the laparoscopy at the gastroesophageal junction of the stomach wall. The electrodes are connected via a guide wire and embedded on the electrode plate under the costal skin. The electrodes were sutured under gastroscopy to prevent damage to the stomach wall. Use electrical stimulation to change their eating habits, to achieve weight loss, weight loss, and treatment of obesity. This weight loss technique is currently considered to be the least invasive weight loss technique, but its cost is high and needs further clinical research.
