Abstract:Objectives Patients presenting with dysphagia can encounter a pathway to therapy and relief that is expensive and frustrating. High resolution impedance planimetry (HRIP) is a new mechanism for enhancing and possibly hastening that process. A balloon with integrated pressure sensors is utilized to measure luminal geometry and pressure by volume-controlled distention. Esophagogastric junction (EGJ) distensibility and body contractility are assessed at the time of other endoscopic procedures. Here we describe a … Show more
