Researchers are evaluating the safety and potential benefits of the Eclipse XL1 System in both children and adults with short bowel syndrome, a condition characterized by having 50% or less of the expected bowel length. This study includes participants aged 3 months to 65 years and is conducted at multiple sites in the United States. The goal is to assess how the device may help with intestinal lengthening and nutritional status. Participants will receive the Eclipse XL1 device, which is placed inside the intestine during a standalone or planned surgical procedure. The device may be inserted once or multiple times depending on medical need, and the location is secured and marked for radiographic monitoring. The study is open label, meaning both participants and doctors know the treatment being given. During the study, participants are monitored while the device is inside their body and again at 3 and 6 months after the device is removed or naturally passes. Researchers will collect data on nutrition, weight, stool, and device position through x-rays. Safety is closely observed by tracking any device or procedure-related adverse events. The total follow-up includes up to 6 months after device removal or passage.

Complete this quick 3-step screening to check your eligibility
Duration - 2 to 4 weeks
Participants are screened for eligibility to participate in the trial.
1 visit (in-person)
Duration - Single procedure
Participants undergo a standalone or planned procedure to have up to 2 Eclipse XL1 devices placed in their intestines for treatment of short bowel syndrome. The device placement is secured surgically and marked for radiologic evaluation.
1 procedure visit (in-person)
Duration - Up to 6 months or until device removal or natural passage
Participants are monitored while the study device remains in the intestine through patient nutrition, weight, stool assessments, and radiographic examinations to confirm device location and assess safety and benefit.
Regular assessments during device in situ (visit frequency determined by clinical need)
Duration - Up to 6 months post device removal or passage
Participants are followed after the device is removed or passes naturally to assess long-term safety and probable benefits, including intestinal lengthening and nutritional status.
2 visits (at 3 and 6 months post device removal or passage)
