Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The project will involve conducting a Needs Assessment for Gastroparesis patients and their caregivers with the goal of identifying quality of life issues associated with this disease. Identifying these issues will ameliorate management and support systems for gastroparesis currently existent in the community and, hopefully, provide information for the establishment of more resources to assist the patients and their families.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This project will involve: a) distributing questionnaires to up to 200 participants (100 patients and 100 caregivers) at the Shands Gastrointestinal clinic and b) focus groups including patients, medical provider, and the clinic case manager. The questionnaires will provide information on the relative effect of gastroparesis on the quality of life of the patients and their caregivers. Assessment of this needs assessment will then help identify areas of potential resource improvement and mobilization to provide support for the patients and their family members.
