Observational Study of Gastroparesis Treatments
This is an observational study called GOLDEN that collects information from people with gastroparesis (a condition where your stomach empties too slowly). Researchers are looking at how different treatments affect symptoms, survival, and quality of life over time. These treatments include GI Neuromodulation (like gastric electrical stimulation, or GES), Immunotherapy (like Intravenous Immunoglobulin), and Pyloric therapies (like pyloroplasty). You might be able to join if you have gastroparesis symptoms that haven't improved with other medicines, have nutrition problems, and can describe your current symptoms. You cannot join if you have a blockage in your digestive system, are pregnant, or have certain psychiatric disorders. The study is ongoing and aims to include 3000 participants.
