Oesophageal Manometry in Experimental Pigs: Methods and Initial Experience
Acta Medica, 2016 The aim of this study project was to prepare our own method of porcine oesophageal manometry. Ten mature experimental pigs entered the study. Conventional water-perfused system was decided for manometry. Porcine resting and relaxed pressures of the lower

Anorectal manometry — How to perform and interpret manometry
ContinenceAnorectal manometry is the most widely used technique for detecting abnormalities of sphincter function and recto-anal coordination. It enables the investigation of defaecatory difficulties, including anal incontinence and evacuatory difficulties, the ...

The esophageal manometry with gas-perfused catheters [PDF]
, 2018 Background. The well-established methods for esophageal manometry have some disadvantages: the-water-perfused catheters needs calibration by gravity and measuring in supine position, and the solid-state catheters are very expensive.

J Gen Fam MedAn 84‐year‐old woman with pleural effusion developed anterior chest pain during thoracentesis, and post‐procedural chest radiography revealed hydropneumothorax, initially suggesting iatrogenic pneumothorax. However, comparison of pre‐ and post‐procedure imaging showed ipsilateral hemithoracic volume loss with tracheal deviation toward the procedure ...

Respiratory Care, 2020 The estimation of pleural pressure with esophageal manometry has been used for decades, and it has been a fertile area of physiology research in healthy subject as well as during mechanical ventilation in patients with lung injury. However, its scarce adoption in clinical practice takes its roots from the (false) ideas that it requires expertise with ...

The value of conventional manometry in the identification of normal esophageal manometry
Medicine, 2021 Abstract In the last decade, high-resolution esophageal manometry (HREM) is the main device for the management of dysphagia replacing conventional manometry (CM). Conventional manometry still seems to have some space to diagnose major motility disorders and differentiate normal from abnormal esophageal motility.

Does the minimal occlusive volume technique provide adequate endotracheal tube cuff pressure to prevent air leakage?: a prospective, randomized, crossover clinical study [PDF]
Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2020 Background Methods of determining proper endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff pressure to prevent air leakage include the minimal occlusive volume (MOV) technique, which uses auscultation, and the spirometer technique, which directly measures inspiratory and ...
