Dumping Syndrome Symptoms and Causes By Jonas Wilson, Ing. Med. Dumping syndrome is a known problem for persons who have undergone gastric, esophageal or bariatric surgeries. It is believed to as a direct consequence of the rapid transit of large osmotically active food particles into the lumen of the small intestine. It is estimated that up to 1 in 5 people who have had parts of their stomach removed for whatever reasons develop the condition. Depending on the timing of the occurrence of symptoms after a meal, dumping syndrome may be classified as early dumping syndrome (EDS) or late dumping syndrome (LDS), which both are due to the rapid transmit of food, but are proposed to have slightly different underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. Despite some overlap, they both have varying symptoms. The majority of people will tend to present with EDS symptoms, while …show more content…

The hypoglycemia associated with LDS causes symptoms such as: • Tremors • Sweating • Hunger • Palpitations • Sweating • Fatigue • Fainting • Confusion • Aggression LDS reactive hypoglycemia occurs due to a rapid absorption of glucose from the small intestine and a responsive hyper-secretion of insulin with stays elevated for a period longer than usual. GLP-1 is thought to play a crucial role in LDS as it is a potent anti-hyperglycemic hormone a. It often found to have an elevated response in patients who have had operations that speed up gastric emptying and causes increased insulin secretion, further compounding hypoglycemia.

The digestive system is responsible for chemically and mechanically breaking down food and includes organs such as, mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, rectum, anus, and additional accessory organs. These organs all aid in the breakdown of food. Food is broken down mechanically by chewing and churning in the stomach, and chemically by acidic enzymes in the stomach and in the small intestine which receives enzymes from the pancreas that are specifically designed for the breakdown of nutrients. Once the food and nutrients are broken down, the excretory system removes whatever the body decides is waste by filtering blood in the nephrons of the kidneys and turning it into urine which is then collected in the bladder and removed from the body when the bladder is

The DSM classifies the following characteristics of pica: persistent eating of non-nutritive substances for a period of at least one month, the eating of non-nutritive substances inappropriate to the developmental level of the individual, eating behavior is not part of a culturally supported or socially normative practice.
