TENS for Scleroderma-related Gastroparesis
This study is looking at how well a device called Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) works to help with stomach problems (gastroparesis) in people with Scleroderma. Gastroparesis can cause symptoms like bloating and feeling full. You might be able to join if you have Scleroderma and experience moderate to severe bloating. The main goal is to see if people find the TENS device acceptable to use. The study plans to enroll 16 participants, but its current status is unclear.
