Intraluminal Esophageal Manometry

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1967
The recording of pressures from the esophagus and its lower sphincter, at one time purely of physiological interest, has proved to be a valuable technique for the study of a number of disorders encountered in clinical medicine. Intraluminal manometry is being effectively utilized at several medical centers as an important supplement to roentgenographic

[Intraoperative esophageal manometry].

Minerva chirurgica, 1991
Intra-operative esophageal electromanometry (IEM), a method foretold by the authors since 1972, is indicated in the course interventions for functional esophageal disease. The main application of IEM occurs in the presence of myotomy and in the preparation of anti-reflux plasty.

Perception of esophageal manometry

Diseases of the Esophagus, 2002
Esophageal manometry is an important investigation method but its direct impact on patients' well-being has not been studied. A structured questionnaire was given to all patients (n=92) after the manometry during one calendar year. The response rate was 91%. A total of seventy-one patients also reported their health status during the next 24 h.

Manometry of the UES Including High-Resolution Manometry

2012
Manometry of the upper esophageal sphincter and pharynx is used for the measure of the contractile activity of these structures at rest, during deglutition, and in response to various stimuli. The anatomic asymmetry, movement, and fast responses of these structures challenge the performance characteristics of most manometric systems.
