摘要: Because disadvantages are inherent in the conventional station pull-through technique (SPT) currently used for recording lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP), a more suitable method is needed. In study, we evaluated rapid (RPT) LESP and compared results with those obtained by SPT. The RPT features withdrawal of sensors across LES during 10- to 20-sec interval suspended respiration. This avoids "artifact" caused respiratory motion provides precise end points scoring measurement. 12 normal subjects, measured (24.3 plus or minus 0.5 mm Hg) was comparable, but significantly greater, than SPT (21.1 9.1 Hg). Analysis scores two methods revealed that both intraobserver interobserver error were substantially less (P equal 0.01). Further correlation between studies greater method. We conclude represents convenient which easier perform yields reproducible values
