[Expert consensus on multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of gastroparesis (2025 edition)].

Abstract

Gastroparesis is a gastric motility disorder characterized by delayed gastric emptying in the absence of mechanical obstruction. Gastroparesis significantly impacts patients' psychological well-being and quality of life, potentially leading to psychological disorders such as anxiety and depression, and also imposes a heavy economic burden on patients and society. This expert consensus covers relevant views on its etiology (diabetes, surgery, drug-induced, idiopathic, scleroderma, etc.), symptomatology, diagnosis (scintigraphic imaging, ultrasound contrast meal assessment, and radiopaque marker gastric motility testing), and treatment (pharmacological therapy, nutritional support, traditional Chinese medicine, and interventions targeting the pylorus, such as endoscopic surgery and surgical procedures). Therefore, this expert consensus advocates the establishment of a multidisciplinary team diagnosis and treatment model, which will further standardize and optimize the diagnosis and treatment process of Gastroparesis in China.
