What is gastroparesis? Gastroparesis, also called delayed gastric emptying, is a disorder that slows or stops the movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine. Normally, the muscles of the stomach, which are controlled by the vagus nerve, contract to break up food and move it through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
First, after eating your food is supposed to move through the stomach relatively quickly to continue digestion in the intestines. In some people food moves very slowly and this backup (called delayed gastric emptying) can cause abdominal pain.
