Overview
There are no abnormal ECG findings associated with gastroparesis. In case of malnutrition and electrolyte imbalance, an ECG may be helpful. Hypokalemia might present with arrhythmia, ST segment depression, low T wave, prominent U waves and QRS prolongation. Hypocalcemia might present with QT interval prolongation.
Electrocardiogram
- There are no ECG findings associated with gastroparesis.
- In case of malnutrition and electrolyte imbalance, an ECG may be helpful.[1]
- Findings on an ECG suggestive of hypokalemia in a patient with gastroparesis include:[2][3][4]
- ST segment depression
- Low T wave
- Prominent U waves
- Prolongation of the QRS duration
- Increase in the amplitude and duration of the P-wave
- Cardiac arrhythmias and AV block
- Ventricular ectopy
- Findings on an ECG suggestive of hypocalcemia in a patient with gastroparesis include:[6]
