Tiny magnetic bracelet which is mounted on the bottom of the esophagus, is able once and for all to save people from painful heartburn. This radically new and most effective treatment to date.
Two magnets reach the bottom of the esophagus, and then joined together. As a result of their work, gastric juice ceases to "leak" into the esophagus, which leads to strong heartburn . The magnets are connected by special metal hoop through which the food will be delivered later in the stomach.
For about 150 patients in the United States have set themselves the magnetic "jumper" to the esophagus. Doctors call this technique revolutionary because it provides very good results. Recently, this Magnetic Bracelet Named Linx He received the formal approval of British control.
As is known, our stomach produces acid ( gastric juice ), Which cleaves the food. In healthy humans gastric acid can not get from the stomach into the esophagus, since the passageway is closed by the lower esophageal sphincter, which operates on the principle of one-way valve. But if it does not function properly, the acid escapes into the esophagus and causes heartburn . Most often this occurs after ingestion of spicy food and alcohol, has a relaxing effect on the esophageal sphincter.
Linx normalizes the function of this valve. The surgeon can set the Magnetic Bracelet through the abdominal cavity as a result of operation under anesthesia. Two magnets are positioned inside titanium flaps are joined together and prevent penetration gastric in the esophagus. However, they do not impede the passage of food in the stomach.
