About this trial
This study will assess changes in glycemic control in 40 patients with diabetes who undergo per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) for medically refractory gastroparesis.

Patients with gastroparesis with an average HbA1c> 7.5% over the past 3 months
Patient that have a diagnosis of gastroparesis established by documented delayed gastric emptying by either a wireless motility capsule study or a nuclear gastric emptying study, with no evidence of gastric obstruction.
Patients are able to complete all study requirements
Disqualifiers
Patients <18 years of age
Patients with gastroparesis with an average HbA1c< 7.5% over the past 3 months
Patients unable or refuse to complete the study requirements

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change from Baseline in Hemoglobin A1C levels
Glycemic control will be evaluated by measuring change in Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) levels. Poor glycemic control defined as an average HbA1c \> 7.5%. Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
Change from Baseline in Glucose Levels measured by Continuous Glucose Monitor
Glycemic control will be evaluated by measuring average glucose levels using Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM). Normal glucose levels 74-99 mg/dL. Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
Secondary outcomes
Change from Baseline on Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire
The Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ) is a self reported instrument assessing diabetes self-care activities. Possible scores range from 0 (Does not apply) to 3 (Applies to me very much). Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
Change from Baseline on Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index
The Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) is a validated patient-administered questionnaire that is used to assess gastroparesis symptom severity. Possible scores range from 0 (None) to 5 (Very Severe). Change = (Six Month Score - Baseline Score)
