The Use of Body Surface Gastric Mapping in Assessing the Clinical Success of G-POEM

Description

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether or not the investigators can utilize Body Surface Gastric Mapping to determine who would best benefit to receive G-POEM procedure and how Body Surface Gastric Mapping can be utilized with patients who have gastroparesis symptoms. the investigators may also be able to find more ways how Body Surface Gastric Mapping testing can benefit patients with gastroparesis and/or G-POEM procedure.
