High-resolution manometry (HRM) is the primary method used to evaluate esophageal
motor function. Displayed and interpreted by esophageal pressure topography (EPT) …

The goal of any diagnostic scheme is to objectively classify patients with similar symptoms
into appropriate clinical categories that ultimately direct specific therapies. Classification …

The introduction of high-resolution manometry (HRM) has been a significant advance in
esophageal diagnostics. Normative values however are currently based upon a single set of …

Esophageal high-resolution manometry (HRM) is replacing conventional manometry in the
clinical evaluation of patients with esophageal symptoms, especially dysphagia. The …

High-resolution manometry (HRM) is the current gold standard technique to assess
esophageal motility. It uses closely spaced pressure sensors to create a dynamic …

Abstract Background The Chicago Classification of esophageal motility was developed to
facilitate the interpretation of clinical high resolution esophageal pressure topography (EPT) …

Esophageal motor function is highly coordinated between central and enteric nervous
systems and the esophageal musculature, which consists of proximal skeletal and distal …

High-resolution esophageal manometry (HRM) utilizes sufficient pressure sensors such that
intraluminal pressure is monitored as a continuum along luminal length, similar to time …

OBJECTIVES: Enhanced characterization of esophageal peristaltic and sphincter function
provided by esophageal pressure topography (EPT) offers a potential diagnostic advantage …

Esophageal high-resolution manometry (HRM) has advanced the understanding of
esophageal motor function and the ability to diagnose and manage disorders of esophageal …
