Description

Gastric motility is coordinated by underlying bioelectrical 'slow wave' activity. Slow wave dysrhythmias are associated with motility disorders, including gastroparesis, offering an under-explored potential therapeutic target. While ablation is widely used to treat cardiac arrhythmias, this approach has not yet been trialed for gastric electrical abnormalities. We hypothesized that ablation can create localized conduction blocks and modulate slow wave activation. Radiofrequency ablation was p...
