Esophageal Motility in the Supine and Upright Positions for Liquid and Solid Swallows Through High-resolution Manometry
BACKGROUND/AIMS Most recent studies using high-resolution manometry were based on supine liquid swallows. This study was to evaluate the differences in esophageal motility for liquid and solid swallows in the upright and supine positions, and to determine the percentages of motility abnormalities in different states. METHODS Twenty-four asymptomatic volunteers and 26 patients with gastroesoph...

متن کاملInter-Observer Agreement in Measuring Respiratory Rate
BACKGROUND Respiratory rate (RR) is an important vital sign which is strongly correlated with in-hospital mortality. At the same time, RR is the most likely vital sign to be omitted when assessing a patient. We believe that one reason for this could be the difficulty in measure the RR, since it is not read off a monitor, but counted manually. Also there is the possibility of assessment bias and...
متن کاملInter-observer agreement in myelodysplastic syndromes.
We read with great interest the recent paper by Senent et al. and the accompanying editorial on the reproducibility of WHO 2008 criteria and inter-observer agreement regarding the assessment of dysplasia for diagnosis and classification of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The reproducibility of any composite criteria is mainly based on both the constituting components and the precise manner in ...
متن کاملFactors Determining the Inter-observer Variability and Diagnostic Accuracy of High-resolution Manometry for Esophageal Motility Disorders
Background/Aims Although high-resolution manometry (HRM) has the advantage of visual intuitiveness, its diagnostic validity remains under debate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of HRM for esophageal motility disorders. Methods Six staff members and 8 trainees were recruited for the study. In total, 40 patients enrolled in manometry studies at 3 institutes were s...
