Disorders of gastrointestinal motility are frequently seen in clinical practice. Apart from motility disorders, factors leading to lowered visceroperception thresholds are recognized as commonly involved in the pathogenesis of functional gastrointestinal disorders. The wide array of gastrointestinal motility and viscerosensitivity tests available is in contrast with the relatively limited number of tests used universally in clinical practice. The main reason for this discrepancy is that the outcome of a test only becomes truly important when it carries clinical consequences. The main goal of this Review is to assess the place of the presently available gastrointestinal motility and sensitivity tests in the clinical armamentarium of the gastroenterologist.
胃肠动力障碍在临床实践中较为常见。除动力障碍外，降低内脏感知阈值的因素也被认为与功能性胃肠病的发病机制密切相关。尽管有多种胃肠动力和内脏敏感性检查方法，但在临床实践中广泛应用的检查方法相对较少。造成这种差异的主要原因是只有当检查结果具有临床意义时，其结果才真正重要。本综述的主要目的是评估目前可用的胃肠动力和敏感性检查在胃肠病学家临床工具中的地位。
