Abstract

In this study the various investigation for the Gastroparesis condition is discussed. The Gastroparesis is a disease/pathological condition in which the food inside the stomach cannot able to digest or empty in a normal way. The Symptoms of the Gastroparesis includes heart burn, nausea, vomiting sensation, fullness feeling quickly after the intake of meal, abdominal bloating. This kind of medical condition is common in people having diabetes for the long term. This phenomenon is common in people for some other conditions also like damage in the vagnus nerve. The vagnus nerve is responsible for the stomach contraction and relaxation. Any damage in the vagnus nerve creates this medical condition called Gastroparesis. In most cases the Gastroparesis condition is caused by prolonged diabetes and viral infections. The Gastroparesis condition is diagnosed using EGG – ElectroGastroGram. In this study, the various methodologies used to diagnose the Gastroparesis condition is reviewed.
