Defining the challenge

  The past decade has witnessed major advances in the understanding of gastric and intestinal motility disorders. In view of the fact that the manifestation of physical symptoms are often not in accordance with the severity of disturbances in gastrointestinal function, it is necessary to develop diagnostic testing modalities which will assist in directing treatment. It is equally necessary for all gastrointestinal function tests to follow protocols that are appropriately standardised and approved. Strikingly, the existence of gastrointestinal dysfunction detected on clinical investigation can significantly influence disease management strategies, in addition to prognosticating response to medical treatment in some diseases (Hoad., et al. 2018; Schwizer., et al. 2002; Holloway, 2006).
