Neurogastroenterology and motility services are specialized programs that focus on the function and disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and its interaction with the nervous system. These programs bring together experts in neurology, gastroenterology, and motility disorders to provide comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services for patients with disorders of the digestive system.
Here are some common neurogastroenterology and motility services:
Comprehensive diagnostic evaluations: A thorough diagnostic evaluation is the first step in treating neurogastroenterology and motility disorders. This may include a detailed medical history, physical examination, and various tests such as esophageal manometry, gastric emptying studies, and anorectal manometry.
Medical management: Many neurogastroenterology and motility disorders can be managed with medications. These may include drugs to relieve symptoms, such as antacids, laxatives, or antispasmodics, or drugs that target the underlying condition, such as antibiotics for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
Behavioral and dietary interventions: Behavioral and dietary modifications may be recommended to improve the function of the digestive system. These may include changes in diet, exercise, and stress management techniques.
Advanced surgical treatments: Some neurogastroenterology and motility disorders may require surgical intervention. For example, surgery may be necessary to treat severe cases of gastroesophageal reflux disease, achalasia, or fecal incontinence.
Motility studies and biofeedback therapy: Motility studies and biofeedback therapy are non-invasive techniques that can be used to improve the function of the digestive system. These studies measure the strength and coordination of the muscles that control digestive function, and biofeedback therapy uses techniques to help patients learn how to better control these muscles.
Clinical trials and research: Neurogastroenterology and motility services are often involved in cutting-edge research and clinical trials to advance the understanding and treatment of digestive disorders.
