About Sedivention

Sedivention is developing a medical device for a new therapy of obesity. The Blizzard cryocatheter freezes the nerve branches, that transmit an increased, inadequate feeling of hunger to the brain in obese people, from inside the stomach. The hunger feeling is reduced in a one-off, minimally invasive intervention, similar to a gastroscopy. Our aim is to help obese people lose weight and thus reduce their risk of secondary diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and cancer. And we do this without surgery, without implants, without lifelong medication.
