Upper Esophageal Sphincter Resting Pressure Varies during Esophageal Manometry
BACKGROUND The upper esophageal sphincter is composed of striated muscle. The stress of intubation and the need to inhibit dry swallows during an esophageal manometry test may lead to variations in basal pressure of this sphincter. Upper esophageal sphincter is usually only studied at the final part of the test. Was observed during the performance of high resolution manometry that sphincter pre...
متن کاملCharacterization of esophageal motility following esophageal atresia repair using high-resolution esophageal manometry.
BACKGROUND Esophageal dysmotility, a considerable issue following esophageal atresia (EA) repair, has been reported but has not been precisely described and characterized. Using high-resolution esophageal manometry (HREM), we characterized the esophageal motility patterns in children with repaired EA and compared these patterns of dysmotility with symptomatology. METHODS HREM was performed as...
متن کاملEpiphrenic and middle esophageal diverticula: A rare cause of esophageal dysphagia. Esophageal high resolution manometry findings.
Esophageal diverticula (ED) constitute a rare pathology, with a prevalence ranging between 0.06% and 4% (1,2). According to its anatomical location it is classified as pharyngo-esophageal, middle esophageal and epiphrenics ED (3). The pathophysiologic mechanism differs in diverticula caused by traction, due to an inflammatory process involving the esophagus, or pulsion, associated with a concom...
متن کاملRelationship between esophageal clinical symptoms and manometry findings in patients with esophageal motility disorders: a cross-sectional study
Background: Manometry is the gold-standard diagnostic test for motility disorders in the esophagus. The development of high-resolution manometry catheters and software displays of manometry recordings in color-coded pressure plots have changed the diagnostic assessment of esophageal disease. The diagnostic value of particular esophageal clinical symptoms among patients suspected of esophageal m...
متن کاملHow to Effectively Use High-Resolution Esophageal Manometry.
Esophageal manometry is the definitive test to evaluate esophageal motility and is indicated in the diagnostic evaluation of patients with nonobstructive dysphagia. Esophageal manometry is also indicated in the preoperative evaluation of patients obtaining a high-quality HRM study. Decisions toward or away from foregut surgery (Heller myotomy, Nissen fundoplication), which can be associated wit...
