ReShape Lifesciences Gets FDA Approval for PMA Supplement Used in Latest Lap-Band

ReShape Lifesciences Inc. is a weight-loss and metabolic health-solutions company. The Company offers an integrated portfolio of products and services that manage and treat obesity and metabolic disease. Its Lap-Band System provides minimally invasive, long-term treatment of obesity and is an alternative to more invasive surgical stapling procedures, such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy. The investigational Diabetes Bloc-Stim Neuromodulation (DBSN) system utilizes a vagus nerve block and stimulation technology platform for the treatment of type II diabetes and metabolic disorders. The Obalon balloon technology is a non-surgical, swallowable, gas-filled intra-gastric balloon that is designed to provide long-lasting weight loss. Its ReShape Calibration tubes are multifunctional devices compared to reusable bougies and disposable gastric tubes. Its Lap-Band 2.0, like the original Lap-Band System, is designed to provide minimally invasive long-term treatment of severe obesity.
