Clinical Application of Esophageal High-resolution Manometry in the Diagnosis of Esophageal Motility Disorders
Esophageal high-resolution manometry (HRM) is replacing conventional manometry in the clinical evaluation of patients with esophageal symptoms, especially dysphagia. The introduction of HRM gave rise to new objective metrics and recognizable patterns of esophageal motor function, requiring a new classification scheme: the Chicago classification. HRM measurements are more detailed and more easil...
متن کاملExamination of the Effects of Vardenafil on Esophageal Function Using Multichannel Intraluminal Impedance and Manometry
BACKGROUND/AIMS To evaluate the effects of the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor vardenafil on esophageal function, including bolus transit, using multichannel intraluminal impedance and esophageal manometry (MII-EM). METHODS Sixteen healthy volunteers (15 men) underwent an MII-EM study including 10 liquid swallows and 10 viscous swallows in a seated position after fasting. Then, each...
متن کاملClinical Applications of Esophageal Impedance Monitoring and High-Resolution Manometry
Esophageal impedance monitoring and high-resolution manometry (HRM) are useful tools in the diagnostic work-up of patients with upper gastrointestinal complaints. Impedance monitoring increases the diagnostic yield for gastroesophageal reflux disease in adults and children and has become the gold standard in the diagnostic work-up of reflux symptoms. Its role in the work-up for belching disorde...
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 کاملClinical Applications of Esophageal Multichannel Intraluminal Impedance Testing.
Multichannel intraluminal impedance is a relatively new technology that allows detection of bolus movement in the gastrointestinal tract without the use of radiation. In clinical applications it is combined with manometry, allowing a better evaluation of the functional characteristics (ie, bolus transit) of esophageal motility abnormalities. When combined with pH monitoring, it provides more co...
