Clinical features, endoscopic and manometric findings in patients with ineffective esophageal motility

Introduction: Ineffective esophageal motility (IEM) is an disorder (EMD) and the most prevalent abnormality routinely observed in manometry. Objectives: In this study, we investigated clinical characteristics of IEM patients effects proton pump inhibitors (PPI) surgical treatments on their conditions. Patients Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted Isfahan 2019-2020 40 diagnosed with IEM. We collected patient demographic information (age, gender, previous medical history, medications, duration current problem) manifestations (clinical symptoms including dysphagia, heartburn, food acid regurgitation, chest pain belching) prior to following PPI or treatment. Results: Approximately 65% presented dysphagia 55% had 47.5% belching, pain. Post-treatment findings revealed that only recurrence regurgitation significantly lower treatment group than group. Only severity statistically significant compared other (P=0.042). group, heartburn (P=0.007), (P<0.001), (P=0.027) decreased baseline. Conclusion: showed common were belching. Moreover, resulted more improvements
