Default Hello again!

I just wanted to share some information with you. I cared for a patient with a gastroparesis related to an injury from a surgical procedure she had. She is in a scientific study and has an implant (similar to an SCS) that sends an electrical current to that particular nerve. I think she said hers is made by Medtronic.

I just thought this was interesting and wanted to share it with you.

Take care,

Rhonda
