Gastric motility

Functions

1. Allows the stomach to serve as

reservoir

2. Breaks food to small particles and mix

it with gastric juice

3. Empties gastric contents at a

controlled rate

1313 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Gastric motility

Gastric motility

Anatomic Regions Functional Motor

Regions

Mixing & emptying of gastric contents

Gastric contents may remain unmixed (1h)

Fat takes a longer time for empty

Liquids are emptied easier and first

Major mixing activities are in the antrum

Retropulsion

Gastric reservoir

Functions:

To maintain a continuous compression

To accommodate the received food with

out significant gastric wall distention or

pressure

2222 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Receptive relaxation

- triggered by swallowing reflex

Adaptive relaxation

- triggered by stretch receptors (vago-vagal

reflex)

- lost in vagotomy

- threshold of fullness and pain

Feedback relaxation

- triggered by chyme in small intestine

Relaxation in gastric reservoir

2424 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Gastric juices – HCl Secretion

2525 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

HCl Secretion (cont)

Mechanism of HCl production:

H/K ATPase

Inhibited by: omeprazole

H/K pump depends on [K]out

[HCl] drives water into gastric content to

maintain iso-osmolality

During gastric acid secretion:

amount of HCO3- in blood = amount of HCl

being secreted

Gastroesophageal reflux disease

4242 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Gastroesophageal reflux

disease (GERD) is a chronic,

relapsing condition with

associated morbidity and an

adverse impact on quality of

life. The disease is common,

with an estimated lifetime

prevalence of 25 to 35

percent.

4343 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Gastroesophageal reflux disease

An approximated 2% of

the adult population

suffer from GERD all

over the world.

The incidence of GERD

increases markedly

after the age of 40.

Dr Anshu P Gokarn 46

Gastroesophageal reflux disease

Complications of GERD

Barrett’s esophagus

Esophageal strictures

Carcinomas

Barrett’s esophagus

Gastric Cancer Esophageal strictures 4747 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Lifestyle modification should be initiated and

continued throughout the course of GERD

therapy

Antacids and over-the-counter acid

suppressants are appropriate, initial patient-

directed therapy for GERD.

Acid suppression by PPIs which provide

symptomatic relief and healing of esophagitis

Guidelines for management of GERD

DeVault RK et al,The American Journal of Gastroenterology 1999:94(6): 1434-42

5252 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Guidelines contd.

Chronic proton pump inhibitor therapy is an

effective and appropriate form of maintenance

therapy in many patients.

Antireflux surgery, performed by an

experienced surgeon, is a maintenance option

for the patient with well-documented GERD.

called H2-receptor antagonists.

Rabeprazole vs. Esomeprazole

Esomeprazole 40 mg results in 10%-15% higher

healing rates in GERD patients, compared to 20 mg

omeprazole racemate.

Same difference is found when the 20 & 40 mg

omeprazole racemate are compared to each other.

The chiral PPI prodrug is converted by acid into an

achiral cyclic sulfenamide which only then reacts with

the proton pump.

Therefore no pharmacodynamic argument in favour of

any single enantiomer formulation of any PPI. Kromer W. Relative efficacies of gastric proton-pump inhibitors on a milligram basis: desired and undesired SH reactions. Impact of chirality. Scand J Gastroenterol Suppl 2001;(234):3-9

111111 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Pregnancy

No data is available in human

pregnancy.

Studies in rats and rabbits have revealed

no evidence of impaired fertility or harm

to the foetus

Contraindicated during pregnancy.

It is not known whether rabeprazole sodium

is excreted in human breast milk.

No studies in lactating women have been

performed.

Excreted in rat mammary secretions.

Should not be used during breast feeding.

Low potential for drug

interactions

Not complicated by clinically significant drug-

drug interactions with medications

metabolized by CYP 2C19

Salient Features

Rapid onset of action

Higher rate of healing

Consistent Symptomatic relief

Increases gastric mucin, Heals mucosa

No effect on Steroidogenesis or endocrine functions

116116 Dr Anshu P Gokarn

Salient Features

The conformation of pump not altered as done by

Omeprazole.

Brings acid production level back to normal baseline

within 2 days as compared to 4 days with Omeprazole

Intrinsic anti H.pylori action

Low potential for drug interactions

Prevents stress induced increase in gastric mucosal

peptide – leukotriene content without altering mucosal

prostaglandin level.
