Orthostatic Intolerance and Gastrointestinal Motility in Adolescents With Nausea and Abdominal Pain

Abstract

Although altered gastric emptying and postural tachycardia are common in a referral population of adolescents with nausea and/or abdominal discomfort, the clinical presentation was not predictive of test results. Furthermore, delayed gastric emptying was not correlated with the current definition of postural tachycardia.
