Functional dyspepsia diagnostic criteria12 |
One or more of the following: |
Bothersome postprandial fullness |
Bothersome early satiation |
Bothersome epigastric pain |
Bothersome epigastric burning |
AND |
No evidence of structural disease (including at upper endoscopy) that is likely to explain the symptoms |
Postprandial distress syndrome diagnostic criteria2 |
Must include one or both of the following at least 3 d per wk: |
Bothersome postprandial fullness (i.e. severe enough to impact on usual activities) |
Bothersome early satiation (i.e. severe enough to prevent finishing a regular-size meal) |
No evidence of organic, systemic, or metabolic disease that is likely to explain the symptoms on routine investigations (including at upper endoscopy) |
Supportive remarks: |
Postprandial epigastric pain or burning, epigastric bloating, excessive belching, and nausea can also be present |
Vomiting warrants consideration of another disorder |
Heartburn is not a dyspeptic symptom but may often coexist |
Symptoms that are relieved by evacuation of feces or gas should generally not be considered as part of dyspepsia |
Other individual digestive symptoms or groups of symptoms, e.g., from gastroesophageal reflux disease and the irritable bowel syndrome may coexist with PDS |
Epigastric pain syndrome diagnostic criteria2 |
Must include at least 1 of the following symptoms at least 1 d a week: |
Bothersome epigastric pain (i.e. severe enough to impact on usual activities) |
AND/OR |
Bothersome epigastric burning (i.e. severe enough to impact on usual activities) |
No evidence of organic, systemic, or metabolic disease that is likely to explain the symptoms on routine investigations (including at upper endoscopy) |
Supportive remarks: |
Pain may be induced by ingestion of a meal, relieved by ingestion of a meal, or may occur while fasting |
Postprandial epigastric bloating, belching, and nausea can also be present |
Persistent vomiting likely suggests another disorder |
Heartburn is not a dyspeptic symptom but may often coexist |
The pain does not fulfill biliary pain criteria |
Symptoms that are relieved by evacuation of feces or gas generally should not be considered as part of dyspepsia |
Other digestive symptoms (such as from gastroesophageal reflux disease and the irritable bowel syndrome) may coexist with EPS |
