Esophageal hypertensive peristaltic disorders.
BACKGROUND Esophageal motility abnormalities include a series of manometric findings that differ to a significant degree from findings in normal, asymptomatic volunteers. METHODS Current review summarizes conventional and high-resolution esophageal manometry criteria used to define and characterize esophageal hypertensive motility abnormalities. KEY RESULTS In the conventional esophageal ma...

متن کاملDeglutitive inhibition affects both esophageal peristaltic amplitude and shortening.
Deglutitive inhibition attenuates ongoing esophageal contractions if swallows are separated by short time intervals. This study aimed to determine whether esophageal shortening, mediated by longitudinal muscle, was similarly affected. Eight healthy subjects with two distal esophageal segments demarcated by mucosal clips and manometric recording sites positioned within those segments underwent c...
متن کاملMechanics and hemodynamics of esophageal varices during peristaltic contraction.
Our hypothesis states that variceal pressure and wall tension increase dramatically during esophageal peristaltic contractions. This increase in pressure and wall tension is a natural consequence of the anatomy and physiology of the esophagus and of the esophageal venous plexus. The purpose of this study was to evaluate variceal hemodynamics during peristaltic contraction. A simultaneous ultras...
متن کاملComparison of Investigation Modalities for Evaluation of Esophageal Peristaltic Function
We reviewed the recent literature concerning investigations of esophageal peristaltic function. The gold standard for the assessment of esophageal peristaltic function is manometry with pH monitoring. Even with this investigation modality, however, we are in fact doing no more than estimating esophageal peristaltic function from the manometry and pH results. With esophageal fluoroscopy and scin...
