United European Gastroenterology (UEG) and European Society for Neurogastroenterology and Motility (ESNM) consensus on functional dyspepsia

Functional dyspepsia is one of the most common conditions encountered in clinical practice. There is a lack of guidance for clinicians in guiding diagnosis and treatment of this prevalent condition. No treatments are currently approved for the treatment of functional dyspepsia in Europe. What is new here A Delphi panel consisting of 41 experts from 22 European countries established the level of consensus on 87 statements regarding functional dyspepsia. The statements reaching consensus serve to guide clinicians in recognizing, diagnosing and treating FD in clinical practice. Endoscopy is mandatory for establishing a firm diagnosis of functional dyspepsia D, but in primary care patients without alarm symptoms or risk factors can be managed without endoscopy. Helicobacter pylori status should be determined in every patient with dyspeptic symptoms and H. Pylori positive patients should receive eradication therapy. Proton pump inhibitor-therapy is considered an effective therapy for FD, but no other treatment approach reached consensus support.
