MARIMPACH : Contribution of High-resolution Manometry With Impedancemetry for the Evaluation of Esophageal Clearance in Achalasia

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Esophageal Achalasia

In brief

Outcome after treatment of achalasia is usually assessed by the Eckardt score (ES). The timed barium esophagogram (TBE) is used to objectively assess esophageal clearance after treatment. High-resolution manometry with impedancemetry (HRiM) provides information on esophageal clearance of liquids in addition to motility parameters. The aim of this study was to compare esophageal clearance determined by HRiM and TBE in patients with achalasia treated by POEM.
