Pharmacological Management of Esophageal Food Bolus Impaction
Background. Soft esophageal bolus impaction is an emergency that requires skilled endoscopic removal if persistent obstructive symptoms do not resolve spontaneously after careful observation. Expedited care of these patients is crucial to avoid respiratory and mechanical complications. Other possible options for management include medical agents used to manage it prior to performing endoscopy i...
متن کاملInfluence of bolus temperature on human esophageal motor function.
Hot and cold water, in comparison to room temperature water, ingested by normal young men, profoundly alters esophageal motor function. Cold water slows or abolishes esophageal peristalsis, prolongs the contraction wave in the distal esophagus, produces a delayed but prolonged relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter, and regularly causes a lower esophageal sphincteric contraction of increa...
متن کامل[Predictive factors of eosinophilic esophagitis in esophageal food bolus impaction].
BACKGROUND Food bolus esophageal impaction is often the first symptom in patients diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitis, representing a change in the epidemiology and management of this urgency. AIM To detect eosinophilic esophagitis predictive factors in patients with esophageal impaction due to food bolus. METHODS Patients seen for foreign body impaction were retrospectively analyzed. E...
متن کاملImpaired Esophageal Bolus Transit in Patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Abnormal Esophageal Acid Exposure
BACKGROUND/AIMS We assessed the bolus transit and motility characteristics in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients with abnormal esophageal pH monitoring. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the combined impedance-esophageal manometry data from consecutive patients who had abnormal acid exposure during 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring. We compared these data to the results from fun...
متن کاملThe incidence of esophageal bolus impaction: is there a seasonal variation?
OBJECTIVES Eosinophilic esophagitis is a disease associated with dysphagia and has a seasonal variation in incidence. The primary aim of this study was to search for a potential seasonal variation in the incidence of esophageal foreign bodies or food impaction. In addition, after exclusion of structural or accidental causes, the authors sought to explore if such a variation would differ between...
