Correlation Study between Electrogastrography and Nepean Dyspepsia Index (NDI) in Clinical Practice Students

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to find a correlation between the Nepean Dyspepsia Index (NDI) and electrogastrography (EGG) in clinical practice students. Methods:In total, 28 students were enrolled. NDI and EGG were measured in all students. NDI was classified as abnormal when the score was 11 or more. In EGG, standard 1 was classified as abnormal if the preprandial or postprandial percentage of normal gastric slow waves of Ch3 was less than 70% or if power ratio of Ch3 was less than 1. Standard 2 was classified as abnormal if standard 1 was met or if the percentage of normal gastric slow waves of Ch3 decreased after meals.Results: NDI and EGG had no statistically meaningful correlation when standard 1 was used, but NDI and EGG had statistically meaningful correlation when standard 2 was used.Conclusions: These findings suggest that NDI and EGG are correlated and that EGG can be used to evaluate the degree of dyspepsia.

Beneficial Potential of Banha-Sasim-Tang for Stress-Sensitive Functional Dyspepsia via Modulation of Ghrelin: A Randomized Controlled Trial

“…Many instruments have been developed, but Nepean Dyspepsia Index has been mostly used as a validated questionnaire evaluating dyspepsiaspecific symptoms and related quality of life (Talley et al, 1999). The Korean version of NDI has been validated (Lee et al, 2003) and properly adapted in various FD-related clinical trials in Korea (Yoon et al, 2018;Park et al, 2019). One clinical study reported the FD prevalence of approximately 25% of the general population, whose average of NDI-K score was 51.06 ± 29.64 (Ko et al, 2018).…”
