Abstract: | Several studies have shown that chronic or recurrent abdominal pain is common among Sri Lankan school aged children (1�3). QOL is an important measurement of impact of a given disease to an individual. Impaired gastric motility has been demonstrated in children with AP-FGDs (4). The objective of this study was to assess the impact of abdominal pain intensity and gastric emptying on QOL of children with AP-FGDs. |
