Definitive Evaluation of Gastric Dysrhythmia as a Disease Mechanism by a Novel Body Surface Gastric Mapping Technique

Functional dyspepsia and chronic nausea and vomiting syndromes affect >10% of the population, inducing a vast burden of ill-health and economic harm. Yet despite their enormous impact, these diseases remain poorly understood, with few objective diagnostic tests available to subtype patients and direct therapies. There is a pressing need for new mechanistic insights and diagnostic solutions that can better characterize these common and burdensome disorders. In this proposal, we translate and apply a new diagnostic approach with outstanding potential to define mechanims of gastric dysfunction - ‘Body Surface Gastric Mapping (BSGM)’. BSGM has been pioneered by our team, and represents the…
