Esophageal high-resolution manometry (HRM) is the current state-of-the-art diagnostic tool to evaluate esophageal motility patterns. HRM measures intraluminal pressure activity in the gastrointestinal tract using a series of closely spaced pressure sensors. In this webinar, we will discuss how the procedure is performed, which patient population would benefit from this procedure, how to interpret the results and lastly, the clinical applicability of the test results.
Learning Objectives | At the end of this session, participants should be able to:
