AGA Clinical Practice Update on Management of Medically Refractory Gastroparesis: Expert Review

Brian E Lacy et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2022 Mar.

Abstract

Description: Delayed gastric emptying on objective testing defines gastroparesis, but symptoms overlap with functional dyspepsia and do not correlate well with gastric emptying delay. This review outlines a strategy for defining, diagnosing, and managing refractory gastroparesis.

Methods: The Best Practice Advice statements presented here were developed from review of existing literature combined with expert opinion to provide practical advice. Because this was not a systematic review, formal rating of the quality of evidence or strength of recommendations was not performed. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE.

Keywords: Abdominal Pain; Gastroparesis; Nausea and Vomiting.
