Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An intragastric device includes an elongated member having a proximal end and a distal end and an anchor connected to the elongated member. The anchor includes a stem, a first arch and a second arch, and a curvilinear element. The stem includes a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end of the stem is attached to the proximal end of the elongated member. Each arch has first and second ends and a proximal peak therebetween. The first end of each arch is attached to the proximal end of the stem, and the second end of each arch extends radially away from the stem. The curvilinear element connects the second end of the first arch to the second end of the second arch.
