Pathophysiology of dumping syndrome
13
• The sudden presence of gastric contents in the proximal small intestine has the physiological response:
• To release of bradykinin, serotonin and enteroglucagon,
• Fluid shift • Leading to early symptoms in less than
30 min.
• Late symptoms: Within 90 min to 3 h, appear due to high insulin secretion causing hypoglycemia

Early dumping vs late dumping
15
• The Arts score –assesses the severity of symptoms after ingestion of glucose for diagnosis of early dumping, and one to two hours for late dumping.
• Likert scale : intensity on a scale of 0-3, where 0 represents the absence of certain symptoms, 1 mild, 2 moderate and 3 severe intensity.

GI physiological investigations
16
• Gastric emptying is abnormal in two thirds of patients: • Rapid emptying almost three times as common as delayed
emptying (Loavenbruck A, 2015 ) • Rapid emptying can cause dumping syndrome leading to
postprandial symptoms seen in PoTS patients (Berg P, 2016 ) • • Gastric myoelectrical activity - abnormal in
PoTS patients, particularly in those with postprandial symptoms:
• (Seligman WH, 2013)

Exclusion of other causes
19
• A thorough medical history, systems review, detailed drug history and physical examination are essential to rule out important differentials: • Diabetes mellitus • Hypothyroidism • Connective tissue disorders • Coeliac disease • Inflammatory bowel disease • Infections • Neurological disorders • Drug effects e.g. opiates can produce bowel
dysfunction

Investigations to exclude other causes

• Endoscopies • Cross sectional imaging • Upper and/or lower GI physiology studies • Neurological signs esp. morning nusea:
• CT or MRI of the head. • Oral glucose challenge in pts. with postprandial
hypoglycemia. • Autonomic function tests – Tilt Table Test etc

Management: Dietary and lifestyle modifications
22
• Ingestion of food is a major trigger for GI symptoms in patients with PoTS.
• Lack of strong available evidence to support specific dietary modifications
• our experience suggests that dietary alteration can improve symptoms.
• Proper dietary history: • Food intake diary - identify specific triggers and
avoid unnecessary dietary restrictions.
Dietary advice in dumping syndrome
• In patients with rapid gastric emptying and postprandial hypoglycemia we recommend the following:
• Eat small and frequent meals • Eat slowly and chew food thoroughly • Opt for low-glycemic-index foods • Increase fat and protein intake to balance energy
requirements • Separate intake of liquids from solids, avoiding liquids for
half an hour before and after meals. • Lie down for 30 minutes after meals - this can reduce
postprandial symptoms e.g. palpitations, flushing or dizziness
• Increasing intake of salt and water appears to improve symptoms of nausea

In patients with gastroparesis, we recommend: • Adequate chewing to reduce the
size of the food • Avoid intake of insoluble fiber • ‘Graze’ – eat regular small meals • Reduce fat intake • Semi solid diet

When to refer to the gastro clinic?
25
• Significant postprandial symptoms • Worsening of usual PoTS symptoms. • Symptoms suggestive of post prandial
reactive hypoglycemia. • A proportion of PoTS patients can have
delayed gastric emptying • early satiety, • nausea and/or vomiting, • fullness and bloating

Pharmacological therapy
26
• Anecdotal experience that GI symptoms improve following treatment of PoTS symptoms with:
• Mineralocorticoids such as fludrocortisone • Sympathomimetics such as midodrine • Hormonal treatment: Octreotide
• Psychological support when the patient has difficulty with coping

Conclusions
28
• PoTS - a range of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms • Organic GI conditions need to be ruled out • GI physiology testing could help to define the GI
phenotype and guide management strategies. • No established guidelines for the management of GI
symptoms in PoTS and patients are therefore treated symptomatically.
• Management of PoTS with conservative measures and drug treatment can improve GI symptoms especially nausea and post prandial somnolence and dizziness
