Mayo Clinic

This Rome Foundation Grand Rounds presentation will appeal to individuals interested in evaluating and treating one of the most prevalent cluster of gastrointestinal symptoms – gas and bloating. These symptoms develop for a variety of different reasons. They are reported by a large number of patients with disorders of gut-brain interaction, such as irritable bowel syndrome and functional dyspepsia. The cause can be elusive; the pathophysiology is complex. The speaker will provide his perspective on this disorder, based on his clinical experience treating patients with these symptoms and research in the field.
Objectives for this Grand Rounds include:
- Review the epidemiology of abdominal bloating and distension
- Appreciate the complex pathophysiology of bloating and distension
- Recognize available treatment options
