Abstract

AIM: It has been nearly 10 years to diagnose and treat gastropathy with the aid of electrogastrogram. Comparing with gastrophotography and gastrofiberscope in thirty thousand cases, electrogastrogram is one of the important methods on research for disorder of gastric motility. It also supplies certain information for gastric organic diseases. In order to improve the electrogastrography, 1 put forward proposals below: (1) Research and production of the apparatus should be integrated with clinical research. (2) According to experiences of clinical application, it is the best choice to produce single conductor electrogastrograph instead of intelligent type. (3) Only one explore electrode is needed. Routine test is only used before meal. For the observing norms. We should put stress on gastric rhythm. And (4) Electrogastrography is mostly applied to diagnosis and treatment of disorder of gastric motility.

Key Words: Clinical application, Electrogastrogram
