Gastric stimulation systems and methods are provided for treating a patient, particularly by modifying behavior of the patient leading to excess weight loss. In some embodiments, such weight loss is achieved with a combination approach which includes two or more of the following: acute screening of the potential patients, gastric stimulation, induction of symptoms or specific behaviors and integration of patient management data into the treatment plan. Gastric stimulation is provided to portions of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly the stomach, with the use of at least one electrode. A variety of gastric stimulation systems may be used, including stimulators that are endoscopically placed, laparoscopically placed or placed by modified or combination methods.

L'invention concerne des systèmes de stimulation gastrique et des procédés de traitement d'un patient, en particulier en modifiant le comportement du patient conduisant à une perte de poids excessive. Dans certains modes de réalisation, une telle perte de poids est obtenue avec une approche combinatoire qui comprend deux des éléments suivants ou plus : criblage aigu des patients potentiels, stimulation gastrique, induction de symptômes ou comportements spécifiques et intégration des données de gestion de patient dans le plan de traitement. La stimulation gastrique est transmise aux parties du tractus gastro-intestinal, en particulier l'estomac, avec l'utilisation d'au moins une électrode. Une grande variété de systèmes de stimulation gastrique peut être utilisée, comprenant des stimulateurs qui sont endoscopiquement placés, laparoscopiquement placés ou placés par des procédés modifiés ou combinatoires.
