RESUMEN La gastroparesia se define como un retardo en el vaciamiento gástrico en ausencia de obstrucción mecánica, asociado a síntomas por más de tres meses. El diagnóstico de elección se realiza mediante la centellografía del vaciamiento gástrico con una comida radiomarcada, lo que parece ser el estudio más confiable y fisiológico. Una vez realizado el diagnóstico hay que hacer una evaluación nutricional de los pacientes para personalizar el tratamiento considerando siempre inicialmente ajustes en la dieta que podrán aliviar los síntomas en ocasiones sin necesidad de recurrir al tratamiento farmacológico. En casos excepcionales, en los que la nutrición enteral no logra administrarse a un ritmo suficiente para mantener el paciente en su rango de peso, o porque esté afectada la motilidad del intestino delgado, además de la gástrica, puede ser necesario el uso de nutrición parenteral. En los pacientes diabéticos es imprescindible un adecuado control glucémico. ABSTRACT Gastroparesis is defined as a delay in gastric emptying due to the absence of mechanical obstruction, associated with symptoms for more than three months. The diagnosis is made by scintigraphic gastric emptying with a radiolabelled food, which seems to be the most reliable and physiological study. Once the diagnosis is done, a nutritional assessment of patients need to be conducted to individualize treatment, always considering initially dietary adjustments that can sometimes relieve symptoms without resorting to drug therapy. In exceptional cases, where enteral nutrition fails to be administered at a rate sufficient to maintain the patient's weight range or because it affected the small bowel and gastric motility, the use of parenteral nutrition may be necessary. The adequate glycemic control is essential in diabetic patients.
