Rome Consensus on Gastrointestinal Motility Disorders

The Rome Consensus on Gastrointestinal Motility Disorders provides standardized guidelines for diagnosing and managing conditions where the muscles that move food through the digestive system don't work properly. It helps healthcare professionals identify issues like constipation, diarrhea, or abnormal swallowing by classifying specific disorders based on symptoms and tests. The goal is to improve consistency in diagnosis and treatment, ensuring patients receive effective care for their digestive motility problems. This consensus is a key reference that advances understanding and approaches across the medical community in tackling these complex gastrointestinal conditions.
