Gastroparesis Treatment in Northwest Arkansas 

What Is Gastroparesis? 

Gastroparesis is a medical condition that causes food to digest more slowly than normal. In a healthy digestive system, strong muscular contractions move food through the digestive tract. Gastroparesis occurs when stomach muscles don't work or work poorly, preventing the stomach from emptying properly. 

Treating Gastroparesis 

Diet modification, medications or tube feeding are common ways to treat gastroparesis. Diet changes may include increasing liquids, restricting fats and plant fiber and eating smaller meals more frequently to maintain adequate nutrition while minimizing symptoms.

Prescribed medications often consist of:

• Prokinetic drugs to improve the rate of stomach emptying
• Antiemetic drugs to control nausea and vomiting

For temporary or more severe symptoms, liquid nutrition is delivered directly to the stomach through a feeding tube. This process is also known as enteral nutrition. 

A New Approach to Treating Gastroparesis 

The Enterra System is designed to relieve nausea and vomiting symptoms associated with gastroparesis. By gently stimulating your stomach using a technique called gastric electrical stimulation (GES), this form of therapy can help patients return to their more comfortable lifestyle.

Unlike other surgical treatment options, Enterra Therapy is implantable, customizable and reversible. The procedure itself is minimally invasive and usually lasts one to two hours.
