Diagnosis of functional dyspepsia and an electrical bio-impedance technique / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

Functional dyspepsia is a common disease in clinical service.Its etiology and pathogenesis are related to a variety of factors,and among them,gastric motility and gastrointestinal motility dysfunction are major causes.At present,diagnosis of functional dyspepsia depends maindy on the complaint of patients and no gastric motility detection method or means are effective enough to complete the diagnosis objectively.The electrical bioimpedance technique extracts information of gastric electrical activity and mechanical movement base on the recngnition of electricity-mechanism compound system and studies complicated procedure of gastric electrical activity,mechanical contraction and gastric peristalsis.The electrical bio-impedance technique has shown a promising clinical application and development prospects.
