Purpose Of Review: Gastroparesis is an important complication of diabetes that may have a major impact on the quality of life as a result of upper gastrointestinal symptoms and impaired glycaemic control. Current management strategies include optimising blood glucose control, dietary modifications and supportive nutrition. Pharmacologic approaches with drugs that have prokinetic and/or antiemetic effects are also used widely; however, current available treatments have major limitations. There is increasing recognition that the rate of gastric emptying (GE) is a key determinant of the glycaemic response to a meal.Recent Findings: There is ongoing uncertainty regarding the impact of longstanding hyperglycaemia on GE, which requires clarification. New diagnostic techniques have been developed to better characterise the mechanisms underlying gastroparesis in individual patients, and these have the potential to lead to more personalised therapy. Management of gastroparesis is complex and suboptimal; novel approaches are desirable. This review summarises recent advances in the understanding of diabetic gastroparesis, with an emphasis on the current therapies that influence GE, and the bidirectional relationship between glycaemic control and GE.
