The invention provides a method and device for providing electrical stimulation to a patient's diaphragm (or other organ or tissue) including the steps of: introducing an endoscope transviscerally (e.g., transgastrically) into the patient's body cavity; delivering an electrode into the patient's body cavity through a lumen of the endoscope; applying suction to attach the electrode to a stimulation site on the diaphragm (or other organ or tissue); and delivering a stimulation pulse to the stimulation site. The stimulation may be repeated at multiple stimulation sites.

L~invention a pour objet un procédé et un dispositif permettant la stimulation électrique du diaphragme (ou d~un autre organe ou tissu) et comprenant : l~introduction transviscérale (p. ex. transgastrique) d~un endoscope dans une cavité corporelle ; la pose d~une électrode à l~intérieur de la cavité corporelle via une lumière de l~endoscope ; l~application d~une aspiration pour fixer l~électrode à la région stimulée du diaphragme (ou d~un autre organe ou tissu) et l~émission d~une impulsion de stimulation dans la région stimulée. La stimulation peut être répétée dans de multiples régions du corps.
