High-resolution Manometry Findings in Patients After Sclerotherapy for Esophageal Varices
(Korean Soc Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2016)
Background/Aims Endoscopic therapy for esophageal varices may lead to esophageal dysmotility. High-resolution manometry is probably the more adequate tool to measure esophageal motility in these patients. This study aimed ...
Prevalencia de los diferentes trastornos motores primarios del esófago: Estudio prospectivo de 5.440 casos
(Sociedad Médica de Santiago, 2007)
Prevalencia de los diferentes trastornos motores primarios del esófago. Estudio prospectivo de 5.440 casos
(2007)
Background: The esophagus can suffer several motor disturbances of
striated or smooth muscle. Aim: To determine the presence of primary motor disturbances of the
esophagus among a group of patients with esophageal symptoms. ...
Esophageal Manometry and pHmetry Profile in Obese Patients Selected for Bariatric Surgery
(SAGE Publications, 2023)
Background: Obesity is a highly prevalent disease and risk factor for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) which could predispose to esophageal motility disorders. Few studies exist regarding manometric and phmetric ...
Esophageal Motility after Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: the Manometry Should Be Preoperative Examination Routine?
(Springer, 2012-07-01)
Our goal was to identify the changes of esophageal motility, lower esophageal sphincter (LES) function, and eating adaptation before and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) and whether manometry should be a routine ...
Ineffective esophageal motility and bolus clearance. A study with combined high-resolution manometry and impedance in asymptomatic controls and patients
(2020)
Background
The definition and relevance of ineffective esophageal motility (IEM) remains debated. Our aim was to determine motility patterns and symptoms associated with IEM defined as impaired bolus clearance.
Methods
To ...
Importance of esophageal manometry and pH monitoring for the evaluation of otorhinolaryngologic (ENT) manifestations of GERD. A multicenter study
(Springer, 2016)
Patients with otorhinolaryngologic (ear, nose, and throat-ENT) symptoms attributed to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are usually treated with medication based on the findings of nasal endoscopy and laryngoscopy ...
Upper esophageal sphincter resting pressure varies during esophageal manometry
(Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgia Digestiva, 2014-09-01)
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 ...
What is the real impairment on esophageal motility in patients with Gastroesophageal reflux disease?
(Brasil, 2013)
Context Impairment of esophageal motility is a common finding in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as reduced lower esophageal sphincter (LES) basal pressure. A very low LES pressure might facilitate the ...
