Autonomic Evaluation of Patients With Gastroparesis and Neurostimulation: Comparisons of Direct/Systemic and Indirect/Cardiac Measures

Abstract: BackgroundDisorders of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and related problems often are manifestations of gastrointestinal, neuromuscular, and/or autonomic dysfunction. Many of these patients respond to neurostimulation, either gastric electrical stimulation or electroacupuncture. Both of these therapeutic techniques appear to influence the autonomic nervous system which can be evaluated directly by traditional testing and indirectly by heart rate variability.MethodsWe studied patients undergoing gastric neuro… Show more

“…Both diabetic and idiopathic gastroparesis are associated with autonomic dysfunction, which our baseline AFT confirmed. Although long‐term GES and implanted VNS can improve autonomic function, short‐term nVNS did not improve cardiovascular dysautonomia or autonomic symptoms in our gastroparesis cohort. Whether this was due to underpowering, duration of nVNS, differential vagal fiber engagement, or dosing (continuous high‐frequency/low‐energy pulses) is difficult to ascertain.…”

“…Discussion of subgroup profiling of hormonal and cytokine data showed some differences between patient diagnostic groups and subgroups, as was the analysis of comorbidities by all patients and by subgroups. 10,20,21 Regarding effects of GES on metabolic control, a recent study done by Lebovitz in type II DM patients who were treated with GES In addition, a high-frequency/low-energy GES treatment regimen in DM Gp patients showed a significant lowering of HbA1c from 8.5% to 6.5% over a period of 1 year. 25 Thus, the exact mechanism of HbA1c reduction after GES therapy is yet to be fully explained; we could speculate that an increase in GLP-1 post-GES might be one of the reasons for improved glycemic control with long-term GES.…”

“…After gastric neuromodulation, changes in autonomic testing, including an increase in cholinergic function and decrease in sympathetic function, were noted. It was proposed that gastric neuromodulation may work via modulation of the ANS [174].…”
