Doctors associated with the clinical trials say that the device is "very promising".

"It's safe, simple, and can be reversed. If it passes its trials, and indications are that it will, it will take its place among other weight loss surgeries," said Henry Buchwald of the University of Minnesota.

Even doctors not associated with the trials are expecting the device to work.

"This is a hopeful and useful thing," said Richard Atkinson, editor of the International Journal of Obesity.

"But what I hope will happen is that this will enable us to better tailor treatments for patients who don't respond to a particular weight loss procedure," he added.
