Methods for treating diabetic gastroparesis.

Diabetic gastroparesis, caused by an autonomic neuropathy of the vagus nerve, is seen in up to 50% of individuals with diabetes. It results in a delay of gastric emptying that wreaks havoc on glycemic control and also has nutritional implications. Treatment is directed toward ameliorating symptoms and improving nutritional and glycemic control.
