Abstract
Gastroparesis is a chronic debilitation condition characterized by delayed gastric emptying. Medically refractory gastroparesis poses a significant burden on patients and the health care system. Managing these patients can be challenging, partly due to the overlap of symptoms with other functional disorders and the lack of a consistent association between symptoms and the degree of gastric dysmotility. Gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (G-POEM) has recently emerged as a novel therapeutic option for managing gastroparesis. This review provides an overview of G-POEM for medically refractory gastroparesis, discussing patient selection, technical aspects of the procedure, clinical outcomes, and future directions.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
