Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
The purpose of this research is to evaluate functional outcomes in patients with Ulcerative Colitis and IBDU who have received an ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA), commonly referred to as a J pouch, after treatment with the Emsella chair.
