Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index

The Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) is a validated, patient-reported outcome measure specifically designed to assess symptom severity in gastroparesis. Developed by Revicki and colleagues in 2003, the GCSI captures the three cardinal symptom clusters of gastroparesis: nausea and vomiting, postprandial fullness, and early satiety, plus bloating and stomach distension. The 9-item questionnaire is responsive to treatment changes and is increasingly used in clinical trials and practice to monitor gastroparesis progression and therapy response.
