Implantica's RefluxStop™ garners strong interest at SAGES

Independent surgeons from Switzerland and Austria shared their real-world experience with RefluxStop™ and clinical outcomes in three presentations and a poster. These exciting educational sessions were filled with lively discussion as the strong outcomes data from Europe were presented, and the unique mechanism of action of RefluxStop™ was discussed with interest and excitement.

Founder and CEO of Implantica, Dr. Peter Forsell, says, "I am grateful for the immense interest from the US surgeons in the RefluxStop™ procedure. Over 1,200 GERD patients have been treated in Europe with the RefluxStop™ procedure, now available in over 40 top-tier centers across Europe. We are eagerly waiting to bring this procedure to US patients, pending FDA approval."

Dr. Forsell goes on to say, "We are very pleased to see the excellent 5-year long-term clinical outcomes of the RefluxStop therapy, presented at the 2025 SAGES meeting. As a surgeon myself, I understand the intense drive among these top surgeons to improve patient care and offer patients the best possible outcomes. The enthusiasm for RefluxStop at the SAGES meeting is a testament to the urgent need for innovation in the surgical treatment of GERD. We are privileged to work together with world-leading experts from the US and Europe to change the paradigm for the surgical treatment of GERD for years to come."

About RefluxStop™

RefluxStop™ is a new innovative treatment that has the potential to spur a paradigm shift in anti-reflux surgery. It's unique mechanism of action differentiates it from standard of care and current surgical solutions. Longer established surgical options for GORD involve encircling the food passageway to support the lower oesophageal sphincter's closing mechanism and are commonly associated with side effects such as swallowing difficulties, pain when swallowing and inability to belch and/or vomit.

In contrast, the RefluxStop™ device treats the cause of acid reflux without encircling and putting pressure on the food passageway. It restores and maintains the lower oesophageal sphincter in its original, natural position.

The RefluxStop™ mechanism of action is focused on reconstructing all three components of the anti-reflux barrier, that if compromised could possibly result in acid reflux. It restores and supports the natural anatomical physiology of the body allowing the body to itself solve the problem with acid reflux.
