CA 2385689

The present invention comprises a method of treating a sphincter that provides a sphincter electropotential mapping device with at least one of a mapping electrode (22) or a treatment electrode (88). The sphincter electropotential mapping device is introduced into at least a portion of the sphincter, the lower esophageal sphincter, stomach, the cardia or the fundus. Bioelectric activity causing a relaxation of the sphincter is detected and energy is delivered from either the mapping electrode (22) or the treatment electrode (88) to treat the bioelectric activity.

L'invention concerne un procédé de traitement du sphincter, fondé sur l'utilisation d'un dispositif de mappage des potentiels électriques du sphincter, qui est muni d'au moins une électrode de mappage (22) ou une électrode de traitement (88). Le dispositif de mappage des potentiels électriques du sphincter est introduit dans au moins une partie du sphincter, du sphincter inférieur de l'oesophage, de l'estomac, du cardia ou du fond. L'activité bio-électrique provoquant la relaxation du sphincter est détectée et de l'énergie est administrée soit par l'électrode de mappage (22) soit par l'électrode de traitement (88) de manière à traiter cette activité bio-électrique.
