Method and system to provide therapy for obesity, gastric motility, or to induce weight loss comprises ablating the gastric tissue around the “pacemaker” region of the stomach, and electrically pacing the stomach with a pulse generator/stimulator to control the electrical activity of the gastric muscle. The ablation to the gastric tissue may be from the epigastric side, or may be from inside the stomach. The ablation may be performed utilizing any one of: radiofrequency catheter ablation; radiofrequency catheter ablation using an irrigated tip catheter; microwave ablation; cryoablation; high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation; and laser ablation. The ablation of the “pacemaker” region of the stomach may be partial or complete. A gastric pulse generator/stimulator is implanted to provide electrical pulses to the stomach. The function of the gastric stimulator after complete ablation of the pacemaker region, is to provide a basic electrical rhythm (BER) to regulate and control electrical activity of the stomach. Alternatively, if partial ablation is performed the function of the gastric pulse generator/stimulator is to enhance the residual basic electrical rhythm (BER), or to interfere with the residual basic electrical rhythm (BER).

A method for creating a plication within a hollow organ. The method uses an elongated member having an end effector attached to its distal end. The end effector has a substantially hollow housing, a fixed jaw extending distally from the housing, and a retractable jaw located within the housing. The method involves the step of inserting the end effector within an organ of a patient such that it is in contact with tissue. The method also involves applying vacuum through the elongated member so as to dispose tissue on the fixed jaw and at least partially within the housing. The method also involves creating a plication by sliding the retractable jaw so that it juxtaposes the fixed jaw.

An implantable device including a supporting member, such as a ring, or series of rings, and an impeding member that is used to adjust the effective area of the created orifice after implantation. The rings may hold pleats of gastric tissue in place around their circumference to create a reinforced constriction within an organ. The rings may be attached to one another with folds or pleats of tissue held between them. If the organ is a stomach, the constriction is positioned such that a chamber of a predetermined volume is created proximal to the constriction, leaving a narrow opening or stoma to the remainder of the stomach's volume distal to the constriction. At least one of the rings is adapted to have an impeding member that may be endoscopically adjusted in order to alter the size of the effective orifice area of the opening or outlet. The occluding member may be a ball suspended by a suspension line connected to opposing sides of the supporting member.

Devices and methods of forming a compliant gastroplasty are presented. In general, fasteners that can reversibly couple are inserted into gastric tissue to form a gastric restriction. When an expanding pressure in the stomach exceeds a certain limit, the coupled fasteners can decouple to accommodate and relieve the excess pressure. Upon subsequent stomach shrinkage, fasteners are brought back into proximity and recouple to reform the gastroplasty. In particular, magnetic fasteners can be inserted into gastric tissue by injecting a solidifying composition into the tissue to form the fasteners. Various devices and methods for forming the gastroplasty are discussed.
