Background
Functional dyspepsia (FD) contains various pathophysiology. We invented drinking-ultrasonography test combining a drink test with ultrasonography to examine gastric motility and sensory function. To evaluate pathophysiological condition of FD, we classified FD patients into four groups using a drinking-ultrasonography test.
Methods
156 FD patients according to the Rome 3 or 4 were enrolled between May 2010 and October 2018. The patients drank 200ml water in 2 minutes interval for 4 times (total 800ml). The maximum cross section of the proximal stomach was visualized four times at each water intake and after 5 and 10 minutes from water intake. Abdominal sensory was assessed using visual analog scale (VAS). We then evaluated 27 FD patients who had done drinking-ultrasonography test before and after medications.
Results
The test classified FD patients into four groups, normal group (30%), impaired relaxation group (10%), delayed emptying group (3%), visceral hypersensitivity group (57%). Among 27 repeat-tested patients, 4 (14.8%) were H. pylori-associated dyspepsia patients (HPD). HPD patients improved sensory function after successful eradication whereas FD patients did not improve their sensory function even their clinical symptoms improved (p<0.01).
Conclusion
The drinking-ultrasonography test we developed identified and successfully classified pathophysiological condition of FD patients. HPD patients improve their symptoms and pathophysiological features on the contrary to FD patients.
