New Medical Device Pending FDA Approval to Test for GERD

There certainly hasn’t been a shortage of products for GERD, there are implants and now a device to better test, monitor and diagnose. It goes through either your nose or your mouth, like roto rooter it appears.

Galway medical device developer Crospon has secured a global deal for its flagship gastroenterology product, EndoFLIP. Crospon develops leading-edge minimally invasive medical devices for monitoring, diagnosis and therapy in the gastroenterology area.
