Pacing the human heart, first done in 1952, is commonly used today. Pacing the canine stomach and small intestine has also been accomplished and has been used to treat a variety of disease models, including dumping, the short bowel syndrome, gastroparesis, the Roux stasis syndrome, and tachygastria. In contrast, pacing the human stomach and small intestine has not progressed as far. Pacing of these organs in man has only been done for short intervals. Moreover, no clear-cut therapeutic applications have as yet emerged. Nonetheless, pacing holds promise as a future therapeutic modality for a variety of disorders of the human stomach and small bowel.
人类心脏起搏于1952年首次进行，如今已被广泛应用。犬类胃和小肠的起搏也已实现，并被用于治疗多种疾病模型，包括倾倒综合征、短肠综合征、胃轻瘫、 Roux 淤滞综合征和胃过速。相比之下，人类胃和小肠的起搏进展相对较小。在人类中，这些器官的起搏仅进行了短时间的尝试。此外，尚未出现明确的治疗应用。尽管如此，起搏有望成为未来治疗人类胃和小肠多种疾病的一种治疗方式。
