Correlations Among Electrogastrogram, Gastric Dysmotility, and Duodenal Dysmotility in Patients With Functional Dyspepsia

Abstract

More than two-thirds of patients with functional dyspepsia have abnormalities in the EGG and antral/duodenal motility. The sensitivity of these 2 different methods is essentially the same. EGG and antroduodenal manometry can complement each other in demonstrating gastric motor dysfunction in patients with functional dyspepsia.
