This study introduces HR mapping of human intestinal slow waves, and provides first descriptions of intestinal pacemaker sites and velocity anisotropy. Future translation to other intestinal regions, disease states, and postsurgical dysmotility holds potential for improving the basic and clinical understanding of small intestine pathophysiology.
