The goals of therapeutic thoracentesis are to remove the maximum amount of pleural fluid to improve dyspnea and to facilitate the diagnostic evaluation of large pleural effusions. Pleural manometry may be useful for immediately detecting an unexpandable lung, which may coexist when any pleural fluid accumulates.

Anorectal manometry is used in the treatment of complex anorectal disorders, such as fecal incontinence and intractable constipation. In a 3-year period at one institution 308 anorectal manometries were performed. A total of 168 procedures were performed for complaints of fecal incontinence, 77 for constipation, and the remainder for a variety of ...

Recently, high-resolution oesophageal manometry was added to the armamentarium of researchers and gastroenterologists. Current studies suggest that the yield of high-resolution oesophageal manometry is higher than that of conventional pull-through manometry and is at least comparable to that of sleeve sensor manometry.

Intraluminal Esophageal Manometry
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1967The 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, 1991Intra-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.
