| An esophageal manometry revealed a normal function of the upper and lower esophageal sphincters. |
|
| Anorectal manometry is indicated to demonstrate the rectoanal inhibitory reflex and to rule out Hirschsprung's disease. |
|
| Esophagram and manometry confirmed the presumptive diagnosis of achalasia. |
|
| Two other cases with Hirschsprung's disease were examined by manometry. |
|
| Endoscopy and manometry did not help to elucidate the cause. |
|
| Finally, a different technology relies on catheters with several miniaturized solid state transducers as an alternative to the conventional manometry equipment. |
|
| Esophageal manometry generally is used to accurately place ambulatory pH monitoring probes, although adequate placement recently has been reported with a tubeless system. |
|
| Anorectal manometry performed a year after her laparotomy showed no evidence of anorectal dysmotility. |
|
| This is also in keeping with the findings of previous studies utilizing non-high resolution manometry and 2D endoanal ultrasound. |
|
| For the study, 26 patients with reflux laryngitis underwent upper digestive tract endoscopies, 24-hour double-probe pH-metry, and manometry. |
|
| Esophageal manometry revealed an LES pressure of 8 mmHg with complete postswallow relaxation pressure at the gastric baseline. |
|
| At baseline, all patients had hypertonicity of the pelvic floor muscles, which was confirmed by manometry. |
|
| Achalasia and diffuse esophageal spasm are two of the more well-known esophageal motility disorders diagnosed on barium studies and manometry. |
|
| Should manometry be performed first in order to ascertain sphincter location? |
|
| Patients also underwent overnight polysomnography and rectal manometry. |
|
| Pharyngeal and upper esophageal sphincter manometry provides the clinician with an objective means of measuring pharyngeal and UES coordination and quantitative pressures. |
