Abstract
Use of the technique of peripheral electrography to study electrical activity in various parts of the gastrointestinal tract in dogs after fasting and during digestion is described, and it is shown that a computerized spectral analysis of peripheral electrograms makes it possible to monitor the cycle of fasting periodic gastrointestinal activity. In the process of digestion, the cycle of fasting periodic activity is disrupted and nonadjacent areas of the gastrointestinal tract exhibit synchronous electrical activity.
