AIM: To investigate the function of electrogastrogram in the diagnosis of GI diseases in children (EGG).
METHODS: 155 cases of children electrogastrogram (EGG), 200 cases of children electroenterogram (EEG) were, compared with those of adults.
RESULTS: The electrogastrogram and electroenterogram of children were similar to those of adults, the frequency and amplitude of the EGG were 2.73 ± 0.02 cpm and 147.16 ± 4.37 μV, respectively, the frequency and amplitude of EEG were 2.93 ± 0.04 cpm, and 244.49 ± 11.57 μV, respectively. In children enjoying sweet food, of abdominal pain and reflux, the frequency of EGG increased to 3.03 ± 0.04 cpm, its amplitude increased to 314.82 ± 6.57 μV (P < 0.01 compared to normal control), while in children of anorexia vomiting, the EGG frequency and amplitude reduced to 2.53 ± 0.08 cpm and 75.5 ± 6.19 μV, respectively esp. Changes in 2 lead. In children of pain and constipation, frequency and amplitude of EEG reduced obviously, to 2.65 ± 0.06 cpm and 109.05 ± 9.71 μV, the changes in 2 and 4 lead were more prominent.
CONCLUSION: EGG and EEG are easy to operate, noninvasive, no pain, and easy to be accepted by patients. Further research on them has practical value.
