Neuro gastroenterology Disorder

The field of neuro-gastroenterology examines the brain. Neurogastroenterology and motility (NGM) disorders are common and entail high medical expenses. There is still concern regarding unmet training requirements and a lack of expertise treating patients with NGM problems despite the fact that paediatric gastroenterology fellows are intended to receive comprehensive training in the diagnosis and management of NGM illnesses. The purpose of our study was to better understand the NGM training experiences of paediatric gastroenterology fellows in North America and to determine how those experiences affected their interest in a career involving GM issues in neurogastroenterology.
